      Description

      A user has configured both Native LDAP and saslauthdPath in a MongoDB deployment.

      The configuration file passes validation and the process is started successfully.  Testing of this configuration scenario suggests that MongoDB will use the saslauthd proxy service for all LDAP user authentications.

      Should the saslauthd service fail, LDAP users are unable to authenticate.

      Documentation should note that should both options be present, the saslauthd configuration will take precedence and MongoDB will use it exclusively.
