For this method in LdapUtils, can a property be wrapped around the setAuthenticationControls call? I do not have permission to query for the OID "1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.27.8.5.1" object that ldaptive request during user credential validation. I had to comment out that line for my deployment but I do not want to have to maintain this file.
I ended up commenting out setControls method from ldaptive's AuthenticationRequest.java source via overlay
