Hi ,

We have used  Security Realm -> Active Directory  with just the domain name 
filled in and no other entries .
'Test' works fine and users are able to use their LDAP credentials to log in .

The issue is that when someone who has logged in and visits this 'Configure 
Global Security' page to make some other change ,  their  username is ( 
silently )  populated in the username field in the Advance option of Active 
Directory .
This is not noticed as the 'Advance' option is not expanded normally .

After one saves the change , the username change ( and some weird password ) is 
saved too after which LDAP login doesn't work for anyone ( including the person 
who last made the change )  with the message 'Invalid login information' ?

The config.xml has that username as <bindName>  and   bindPassword .

The only fix known to me so far for this is to manually remove these entries 
from config.xml  and force restart Jenkins  :( .

Does anyone know why this happens and how to prevent it ?

Our setup is :

JENKINS  = LTS  1.580.1
HOST OS  = CentOs
Active directory plugin = 1.39
LDAP plugin = 1.6 .

Thanks in advance
Taher .
