I can't add Johann Hofmann (jhofmann@mozilla.com) as an author for the Nightly blog, I get this error:
"The requested user does not exist."

Can he be added? Shouldn't all users in our LDAP be recognized by out LDAP?

Thanks
Added with "Author" privileges.

Thank you! I can't, however, log in with the credentials I received via email.

Password reset doesn't work either. "Your account is tied to an account in the central directory. You cannot retrieve your password via email." Any idea? :)

Hm, not sure what the issue might be. Are you using your regular LDAP credentials, with your full email address as the username? The automatic email you got from WordPress might have indicated something else but your regular LDAP credentials should work. If that's what you're using and it's still not working we can dig further to find the problem.

Oh, LDAP credentials. Got it, thanks. Sorry for the noise :)
