Ian Bacher commented on SHIRO-57:
---------------------------------

A note on the patch: although the blog article linked addresses needing only to 
configure a domain name, this patch actually requires a system user as well. 
Removing the dependency on the system user credentials appears to require a bit 
of a significant overhaul of the AD classes (i.e. detaching them from the LDAP 
authentication chain altogether or generating an abstract LDAP layer overtop 
the current AD and LDAP layers). However, the patch allows an ActiveDirectory 
realm to be created using only a domain name (your.domain.com) and a system 
user name and password.
