Description

Needs more details

some errors during import of new users could be more informative. so far I encountered:

  • too short passwords (maybe this should even be catched in school settings - it should not be possible to choose a smaller password length than samba allows)
  • duplicate IDs
  • missing birthdate of user(s)

the process just stops with an generic python error - it would be better probably to get a proper warning what is wrong with the import data.
