I think you're going to auth against LDAP and update your database on every
page load by doing it this way. Maybe that's the way you want to do it, but
another thing you could do is just add another condition to the if statement
in the startup method:
if ($controller->action == 'login' &&
isset($controller->data[$this->userModel])) {
In my application, I'm not going to worry too much about them changing
things on the LDAP server minute to minute, so I use the above if statement.
Thanks so much for volunteering all this code. It's been very helpful.
