Thanks Alexander, that got my past that error.

I created the sysaccount and I can bind successfully, but in accordance
with the documentation, it doesn't have rights to modify other users:

Unexpected error while testing ldap test user LDAP ⇨ LDAP Directories ⇨
default ⇨ LDAP Test User, error: javax.naming.NoPermissionException: [LDAP:
error code 50 - Insufficient 'write' privilege to the 'userPassword'
attribute of entry
'uid=test.user,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=ipa,dc=rdmedia,dc=com'. ]

This LDAP Proxy User will try to do the following things to the LDAP Test
User:

"The following functionality (if enabled) will be tested using the test
user account.

Authentication
Password policy reading
Set password
Set challenge/responses
Load challenge/responses"

What is best practice here, should I grant more privileges to the
sysaccount (how?), or should I create a 'regular' user in the UI/through
the ipa cli and grant the necessary roles there?
