[Koha] LDAP Setting on 17.05=Koha

[Scott Owen]

I'm not extremely familiar with Ubuntu...
but..

if possible you may want to try and install the "ldap-utils" package. (apt
install ldap-utils )
After this package is installed you should be able to use the 'ldapsearch'
script to verify / test that your connection from the Koha box to your LDAP
server.
