Migration from PluggableAuth 5
In REL1_39 branch LDAPAuthentication2 was adapted to PluggableAuth 6.

So in case of migration from REL1_35-REL1_38 (PluggableAuth 5) to REL1_39 (PluggableAuth 6) some configuration needs to be changed. Here is the example of the old configuration: As a result, "Log In (PluggableAuth)" login button will appear on login page, with "domains" dropdown.

Domains list is obtained from the domain configs file. Let's assume that we have "ldap1" and "ldap2" domains configured there, still it is not reflected in PluggableAuth 5 configuration.

Here is how such configuration should be changed to be compatible with PluggableAuth 6: Here "ldap1" and "ldap2" are domains which are configured in domain configs file.

As a result, "Log In (LDAP1)" and "Log In (LDAP2)" login buttons will appear on login page.

So the main difference is that:
 * There is only one login button per LDAP domain.
 * Now  global should be used.
 * global is not used anymore.
