Thanks a bunch. That does seem like something worth putting in the
docs under AuthUser, ldap. Maybe I'll do that once I have this all
figured out, since it is a wiki and all. :-)  However, it doesn't seem
to completely solve my problem. Now I get no error message, it just
doesn't log me in, so I don't know if the ldap enquiry was successful
and there is some other problem, or if I am still having ldap
problems. Any ideas how to troubleshoot this? I'd still like to know
if there is a log somewhere that might give me more info.

thanks,
