Before this werk when configuring an LDAP connector to assign roles or custom attributes to users based on their LDAP groups checkmk would limit user attributes to groups identified via Common Names and roles to groups identified by Distinguished Names.

As of this werk, Checkmk will now allow groups to be identified by either Common Names or Distinguished Names.
