[rt-users] I need help with the RT-Authen-ExternalAuth LDAP settings, please

I didn't know the OU until a few moments ago so I only entered
"cn=user,dc=example,dc=com". That did seem to make a difference. However,
I'm still not able to log in. Perhaps for other reasons, though:

Oct 17 16:33:11 zen-rt RT: [24525]
RT::Authen::ExternalAuth::LDAP::_GetBoundLdapObj Can't bind:
LDAP_INVALID_CREDENTIALS 49
Oct 17 16:33:11 zen-rt RT: [24525] FAILED LOGIN for example\user from
192.168.236.102

I know I'm entering my username and password correctly and have again tried
just the username, example\username, and example.com\username. I'm
wondering if the LDAP_INVALID_CREDENTIALS error is because of the missing
OU. I do know it now, but how do I enter an OU that has two words? I was
told it is example.com/Special Accounts.
