[Building Sakai] Sakai 2.6.3 to authenticate with LDAP server

[Daniel McCallum]

Your bind DNs don't match.

   uid=root,ou=People,dc=test,dc=com

vs

   cn=admin,ou=People,dc=com,dc=com

Also a good idea to crank up logging while you get the config 
straightened out. In (sakai|local).properties:

   log.config.count=1
   log.config.1=DEBUG.edu.amc.sakai.user

Only need to change attribute mappings if the defaults don't match your 
LDAP schema.
