When I enter a DN and password in Advanced configuration at admin/settings/ldap/ldapdata/edit/1 and hit Test, the module is actually doing an anonymous bind. This is confirmed through Wireshark. It should be doing an authenticated bind to test the DN and password just entered.

This only seems to happen if the DN and password are empty. If they are already filled in (and the Clear password checkbox is present), then Test does an authenticated bind.

The DN and password should be saved first, only then they can be tested. The explanation sais '"Test" tries authentication with the saved DN and password and prints the result.'
