### Limitations:
This implementation uses *no* ldap bind user - it tries to bind to the ldap (using ldapts) with
the uid and credentials of the user which tries to login.

the uid and credentials of the user which tries to login. Safes the hassle of password hashing for LDAP pwds.
Only valid LDAP users or email users registered by an admin can login.
