"Protected users" and "LDAP login" NOT possible?

[duwil]

In Mantis 1.2.4 I have some "shared access" users, so I need to protect those accounts but this seem not possible: the login is not permitted if the authentication is ldap and the account is protected, is this intended or a bug? In my ldap directory I do have accounts that are not related to a single person. In R1.1.6 this scenario is perfectly working but I'm trying to migrate, any ideas?

Maybe this changed behaviour is the reason for your issue

I don't use MantisBT with LDAP and I am no expert for it, so I can't tell you if it's a bug or a feature.

Could someone using LDAP confirm the aforementioned behaviour? I'm not an expert so I may be just missing some configuration option, in case this limitation is intended it would be also interesting to know the reason why from some developer...
