Setting base_dn as the top-most level,with referrals off, generates a KeyError: 'sAMAccountName'

Even though the top-most level of the tree encompasses all containers, trying to view the user list shows a Trac error of KeyError : sAMAccountName.

This of course happens when all the users are found with the search filter (objectCategory=person) and some values returned aren't dictionaries.

At first, making a more specific base_dn worked. (eg. cn=Users,dc=my,dc=example,dc=com) But that didn't get every user.

So the line I configured was inside auth.py line 50

• userinfo = [self._get_userinfo(u[1]) for u in users]

+ userinfo = [self._get_userinfo(u[1]) for u in users if type(u[0]) == type({})] and now the list according to the search filter generates without errors.

• userinfo = [self._get_userinfo(u[1]) for u in users]
  

+ userinfo = [self._get_userinfo(u[1]) for u in users if type(u[0]) == type({})]

this is similar to #9219
