xwiki uses jldap.
http://www.openldap.org/jldap/
Without delving deeper, I don't know whether jldap uses openldap libraries =
or not.  I thought that it might since it was an openldap project.  Though =
if jldap and openldap are different enough then this issue points to a prob=
lem then with Active Directory.  On the other hand, Windows login, email, .=
..etc. were unaffected by the comma and period in the password.
Regardless - take the comma and period out of my password, both tikiwiki an=
d xwiki work.
