Got the package installed, but finding a useful how to or documentation (that isn't 10+ years old) is damn hard.

After installing it tells you to copy a .dist file to a different name, edit is and create a file to which you add one line.
That's it. No clue on whether that is enough or how to login.
I tried it all. Just the username (as I use on the webconf), domain\username, username@domain.org.

And the usual plain password in a text file. Unbelievable...
