Description

Rob Winch (Migrated from SEC-1955) said:

There are a number of references to InMemoryDaoImpl in the reference that should be replaced with InMemoryUserDetailsManager. This will help to ensure users do not use InMemoryDaoImpl and have their credentials erased as experienced on SEC-1952.
