[pve-devel] [PATCH docs] pveum: document correct path for ldap/realm credentials

[Christoph Heiss]

/etc/pve/priv/realm has been the default path since commit

  782b702db ("auth ldap/ad: make password a parameter for the api")

That commit was part of pve-access-control 6.0-7.

Replace /etc/pve/priv/ldap with /etc/pve/priv/realm, to avoid pointing
users to the deprecated path.

It's not used anywhere in our code too, except as (very) old fallback.

 single line with the raw password.
 
 To verify certificates, you need to set `capath`. You can set it either
