Description

When using the LDAP authentication backend, we had the following error when trying to login

[LDAP: error code 32 - 0000208D: NameErr: DSID-03100245, problem 2001 (NO_OBJECT), data 0, best match of:

'DC=WWW,DC=YYYYYY,DC=ZZZ'

the actual cause of the error was that the user was not declared in Rudder
The log should clearly say that the user is not there, or at least documentation should mention it
