Joe,
Thanks for the quick reply.
That's good to know, but something is still not working right because I
haven't been able to log in with any of my AD user accounts (whether or
not I have an existing borrower in the Koha database with the same
username). I get this error in the logs:
opac-user.pl: LDAP Auth rejected : invalid password for user
'[USERNAME]'. LDAP error #16: LDAP_NO_SUCH_ATTRIBUTE, referer:
http://avocado/cgi-bin/koha/opac-user.pl
opac-user.pl: # The request referenced an attribute that does not exist,
referer: http://avocado/cgi-bin/koha/opac-user.pl
Cheers,
