IBM CDC multiple OU recognition in the ldap.properties

We have to give full hierarchy of OU for the user in authUserBaseDN, which means it is restricting to use users from two different OUs.
i. Example: current we have used “authUserBaseDN=OU=ConsultantAccounts,OU=Users,OU=Corporate,DC=tiffco,DC=net”
ii. By using this, we can configure only consultant LDAP accounts, but not able to setup access for Tiffany associates (OU=Associates,OU=Users,OU=Corporate,DC=tiffco,DC=net)

Please fix it allow having two different OU or parent OU configured in the ldap.properties file

Ticket TS001733795 opened earlier on this.

    This is very silly of CDC. The CDC should be able to take all the users and subgroups under a higher level OU group.

    In the above example if we have a higher level OU=Corporate and 2 subgroups under Corporate ConsultantAccounts and Associates they should be picked up by CDC automatically. Any LDAP search tool works this way. I am not sure why CDC does not work using a high level group and why it cannot search for all Sub group under this high level group.
