[LON-CAPA-admin] Authentication: more than one LDAP server?

Hi,

As far as I know, there is no attribute to specify which server to 
use for a user. Having said that, one could modify the localauth 
module so that a user is passed to different ldap servers until one 
of them says the user is valid.

Hope that helps.
