Description

I created a very quick and dirty 4-line patch to allow contextless login authentication in Active Directory on LDAP module. I.e. without the need to have a search specific user nor allowing anonymous search in the directory server.

It uses the same login and password entered in the login screen and computes domain from a regex sub from the base_dn to avoid the need to create additional configuration fields (binds samaccountname=login@domain).

I know that it might not be needed for most AD ldap scenarios, when you should be able to create a specific user just to bind and search on your Active Directory, but I thought it might come in handy for other people.
