Stuart Lewis commented on DS-1180:
----------------------------------

It could be, and perhaps should be, now that you've added this patch to make 
the one class perform both functions. We just need to make this decision and go 
with it if we want to, then remember to remove the other LDAP authenticator 
class, and all associated documentation.  I'd be happy for this to be done.

> Before attempting a user authentication, LDAPHierarchicalAuthentication 
> attempts to lookup the user's DN using an adminUser and adminPassword. This 
> is unnecessary if all users from an institution are in the same LDAP 
> container, e.g.,:
>   uid=sam,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=edu
> The necessary variables for building the DN manually are already in 
> authentication-ldap.cfg.  This patch attempts to build the DN manually *if* 
> the adminUser is empty.
