> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-437
> Project: Apache Knox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Server, Site
> Affects Versions: 0.4.0
> Reporter: Kevin Minder
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 0.5.0
>
>
> In some cases the KnoxLdapRealm will not work unless the
> KnoxLdapContextFactory is also configured. In particular the use of an
> ${ALIAS=...} in the >main.ldapRealm.contextFactory.systemPassword param. As
> this is such a common and important use cases the KnoxLdapContextFactory
> should be included in all default topology files, all sample topology files
> and all documented topology files.
> The snippet below shows what needs to be added to the topology files.
> {code:xml}
> <topology>
