LDAP

HedgeDoc can use one or multiple LDAP servers to authenticate users. To do this, you first need to tell HedgeDoc the names of servers you want to use (HD_AUTH_LDAPS), and then you need to provide the configuration for those LDAP servers depending on how you want to use them. Each of those variables will contain the given name for this LDAP server. For example if you named your LDAP server MY_LDAP all variables for this server will start with HD_AUTH_LDAP_MY_LDAP.
