What I did more specifically was: 1. enable the ldap_auth plugin through the Admin->Authentication menu (and install python-ldap) 2. configure the LDAP settings, including Base DN and LDAP search filter 3. manually editing the 'users' table in the database with a query like: update users set extern_type='ldap' where username is not 'admin'; I did not make other adaptations in the database. So 'extern_name' would still be 'internal'. Once a user would log in with CSL, the extern_name would be updated automatically with the corresponding LDAP info. I did not change/empty the password manually.
