Changes to BuddyPress/WPMU

• LDAP integration using WPMU-LDAP plugin
• Enable 'Only logged in users can create new blogs.' in WPMU options
• LDAP options: Auto-Create WPMU Accounts? = Yes. Auto-Create WPMU Blogs? = No. Disable Public Signup? = No
• Privacy for BuddyPress using More Privacy Options
• Privacy plugin site-wide option: Site Privacy = Default: privacy managed per blog
• BuddyPress options: Show admin bar for logged out users: No
• Change BuddyPress Base profile group name: General
• Remove 'Change Password' fields in My Account - General Settings. It doesn't work when using LDAP. wp-content/mu-plugins/bp-core/bp-core-settings.php
