Cross-referencing blank passwords

When the Cross Reference Blank Password option is selected, AR System attempts authentication through the AREA LDAP Configuration form. Make sure to set the user password in the AREA LDAP Configuration form and not in the AR System User form to authenticate the user successfully.
If the user does not provide a password, AR System rejects the login attempt.
