To address the issue of Authelia querying the non-existing memberof attribute for groups when using the lldap LDAP implementation, you can modify the LDAP attribute mappings in Authelia's configuration to ensure it does not request attributes that are not supported by your LDAP implementation.

In your current configuration, Authelia is likely using default settings or explicit settings that include the memberof attribute. Since lldap does not recognize this attribute, you need to adjust the LDAP attribute mappings in Authelia to exclude memberof.

Here’s how you can adjust the configuration:

1. Identify the Attribute Mappings: Check your Authelia configuration for any mappings that include memberof. This could be in the user or group attribute mappings.

2. Modify the Configuration: Remove or comment out the lines that map or request the memberof attribute. Ensure that the attributes you configure are supported by lldap.

3. Restart Authelia: After making changes to the configuration, restart Authelia to apply the changes.

Here is an example of how you might adjust the LDAP settings in the Authelia configuration:

authentication_backend:
  ldap:
    address: 'ldap://lldap:3890'
    implementation: 'lldap'
    base_dn: 'dc=example,dc=com'
    user: 'uid=authelia_bind_user,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com'
    attributes:
      username: 'uid'
      mail: 'mail'
      display_name: 'cn'  # Assuming 'cn' is used for display names in your LDAP
      # member_of: 'memberOf'  # Remove or comment out this line if 'memberOf' is not supported

Make sure to adjust the attribute names according to what is supported by lldap and what is required by your Authelia setup.

If you continue to encounter issues or need to customize the behavior further, consider consulting the Authelia documentation or seeking support from the Authelia community or the maintainers of the lldap implementation.
