Problem with LDAP authenticated users.

	I've been using LDAP authentication for quite some time now for
the Apache access... You just need to make sure that the contact name
matches the username they authenticate as... If you set the
authorized_for_all_services to * that would allow anyone who is
authenticated view all the services... This does not work for my
situation where I have some logins that only need to be able to see
certain services/hosts and not all... Otherwise setting the various
authorized_for_* variables with the username that matches who they
authenticate as should do...
