Hi,

The problem is that there is no standard way how to disable a user in=20
LDAP. Some LDAP servers have proprietary attributes for this. And some=20
servers (such as OpenLDAP) have no good way to do this at all. Therefore=20
there the studio has to support many algorithms and it may even need=20
custom extensions to support this properly.
