SearchGroups blows up with an index out of range :
This happened to us all the time when clicking Groups tab in 'Users & Groups adminstration', and on certain group searches from sharing tab.

IndexError: list index out of range
line 1093 of LDAPUserFolder.py (from release 2.8) does this:
rec_dict[key] = val[0]
Unfortunately , sometimes val is empty. Some groups get returned by the previous line with a key 'Member' and an empty val. We are not interested in searching such groups anyway. This may be a bug somewhere else which I don't understand, but 1 line of defensive coding here will fix it.
Simply insert a : if val != []:
just before line 1093
(and obviously indent line 1093).
That's it! ;-)
This is a very important fix because with it, finally LDAP groups ACTUALLY WORK (for normal , non-superhuman Plone integrators) in Plone. ;-)
PloneLDAP 1.0RC3 works really well. A shame if it is let down by a bug in LDAPUserFolder (or a bug somewhere else that LDAPUserFolder doesn't gracefully handle)
