When I have this problem I just add the domain to my dstdomain list ACL,
above the LDAP authentication ACL. This is only useful for you if you don't
mind people going to the site without authenticating, which works for me as
it is normally only HTTPS business sites they are trying to access, which
then require a specific name and password to access the site anyway.
