Description Florian Best

Since UCS 4.2 the default login is SAML Single Sign On. The two login pages look identical so one cannot differentiate if she currently is using the single sign on login.

If one wants to login as root now this is not possible because SAML only checks for LDAP users. A error message occurs that the pasword is wrong.

We should make it clear that one needs to use the regular login for the root user.
