[dokuwiki] ldap authentication to Exchange

Greetings,

While trying to get docuwiki to authenticate against my company's Microsoft Exchange server, I managed to not need an account for the application because the string that the person types into the username field is the same one thatwould log into the ldap with. I did need to make one change in ldap.class.php to facilitate this, and thought I would share it with the group. All it does is set $dn to $user if $dn is empty before the attempt to bind with the users information.

The patch follows in unified diff format.
