Authentication question: user OR group

Hello,

I've set up ldap authentication and would like to allow access to all
users in groupA and another user userA (not part of the group).

Require user userA
Require ldap-group groupA
Satisfy any

This doesn't work, it accepts any user.

From looking at the documentation, it seems like this simple use case
isn't possible at all.
Can someone please proof me wrong?

Yep, seems likely. Re-read the documentation of "Satisfy" for details.

The concept you're looking for is "Authoritative" authorization (you need
to turn it Off to use more than one Require with OR logic).

I tried setting "AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off", without success, it's
still AND logic (group and user must match).
Reading the documentation, I think it can be used to try to
authenticate the user against multiple auth modules but not enable OR
logic for Require statements.
