Hi, 

I am trying to use the ldap authentication on 0.99.11 and I cannot get cherokee to accept my settings. The filter I am trying to set is the following (&(cn=groupname)(uniqueMember=uid=${user},ou=People,dc=domain,dc=net) which works well with an ldapsearch on my linux box.

Also, am I really forced to specify a bind DN and password ? Apache would bind to ldap with the credentials passed from the authentication box, and cherokee would not start with an anonymous bind on 0.99.11 (error message on restart)

Basically I am trying to replicate the equivalent apache setting:

require ldap-group cn=groupname,ou=Roles,dc=domain,dc=net

I hope that it can be achieved in some way.

It does certainly sound like something we could implement in the
upcoming releases.
Could you please log a RFE for it?
