I dont let the user a option to choose any other backend. The backend  
is the same for all users, as far as I understand the settings. The  
only setting I changed is hordeauth = yes
Now no user must log on seperately on gollem. no error message is  
given on any user, but my user is producing such a error message,  
multiple times. Even if I dont use gollem, which is strange.

Must I extra authorize users in addition to change the hordeauth to 'true'?
