[rt-users] Implementing LDAP Authentication in RT 4.0.2

[Izz Abdullah]

The comma is no longer there.  The only thing I stripped was only using LDAP as an external source, the mysql db resides locally and is defined elsewhere within RT_SiteConfig, and within LDAP itself, I only removed the two GROUP mappings.

The comma is irrelevant and unnecessary.

You stripped even more things when copying from the example to your config. Go look at your version of ExternalSettings as compared to the sample.
