Hi,

It would be advisable to attempt to configure the ldap client for your site using caldavd.plist, instead of editing the code. Our ldap client is highly configurable / flexible, and so far I haven't found any reason to need to edit the source code to adapt our ldap client to a wide variety different ldap servers.

You can look at http://trac.calendarserver.org/browser/CalendarServer/trunk/twistedcaldav/stdconfig.py under twistedcaldav.directory.ldapdirectory.LdapDirectoryService to see all the available settings.

If the change you need cannot be represented using the plist, kindly let us know exactly what you're doing so we can consider making whatever you are doing configurable.
