Re: ldap user with starcluster

So Shlomit,

As for error logs, you should find those under the .starcluster folder in
your home directory.

Yet from what you sent, I suspect that you might have added a space in the
plugin name.

Did you try "plugins = createusers" instead of "plugins = create users"

Hopefully this small correction will fix things.
