Subject: Re: [cas-user] CAS LDAP authentication problem

We are using FastBind to our Active directory, and we use in the form
of:

[email protected]

So if your Active Directory domain is ad.school.ad.uk you just add that
on to the end of the user ID, saves having to look up the full CN.

Thanks
Paul
