Description

In my LDAP configuration I specify 3 different servers, which have different users based on their location. The first server in the list is a NA server. When a NA user attempts to login, they are successfully authenticated. The second server is EUR. When a EUR user tries to login, they are denied. I have verified the user exists and can successfully authenticate in other systems. It appears since they are not found in server1, and exception is thrown and the others servers are not queried.

Research direction

Start by tracing the LDAP authentication flow that handles the configured server list, then reproduce the issue with three servers and users present only on the second server. Done means a user missing from the first server can still be checked against subsequent configured servers and authenticate successfully when found.
