## Common questions

### Which LLDAP group should I use for service accounts?

Use a user in lldap_strict_readonly or lldap_password_manager for most LDAP integrations. Reserve lldap_admin for people who need full Web UI administration.

### How can I check why the LLDAP service is not running after setup?

Run systemctl --user start lldap and then systemctl --user status lldap. If the service is not running, the status output helps identify the problem.

### Can LLDAP be paired with Authelia?

Yes, LLDAP can be paired with Authelia.
