I recently upgraded to v1.6. My one course set up to use LDAP for enrollment (in v1.5) now is broken and I can't select LDAP as my enrolment method. Any ideas? I also tried creating a new course, and the same thing: the enrolment plugins drop-down on course settings only lists "internal enrolment".
Anybody else experiencing this?
This seems related to the bug 5882 reported earlier (URL below). Any updates? I'm not a php programmer, a mere system admin.

Go to Admin -> Users -> Enrolment Plugins and you'll find the screen for enabling the enrolment plugins you want to use.
It was/is already enabled. Everything was working great in v1.5.
The patch that Dan puts forward in the bug report comments (http://moodle.org/bugs/bug.php?op=show&bugid=5882) has made it so that my AD group members are enrolled automatically again -- which is the main thing. (Thanks Dan!)
LDAP-enrolled users are no longer told that the course is not open for enrollment. The settings drop-down menu, however, still doesn't list ldap as an option for default enrolment. It lists "Internal Enrolment" twice. (Seems pointless.) Why doesn't it list LDAP? Is it because LDAP is not an interactive enrolment method? If so, shouldn't this settings field be something like "Interactive Enrolment Plugins" instead of "Enrolment Plugins"?

I don't want to be picky, but the text above the enrolment plugins configuration table reads (emphasis is from original text):
"..., and one plugin can be set as the default plugin for interactive enrolment."
All of them are enrolmente plugins. Some of them are interactive enrolment plugins. So if a plugin is not available for interactive enrolment (the plugin itselfs dictates this), you can't choose it as the default. Seem pretty clear for me
