HOWTO: How to obtain dscl output for Mac Authenticator troubleshooting

How can we obtain dscl output for troubleshooting issues with the Mac Authenticator not authenticating users properly?

In order to produce a dump of the DSCL info (which is what the Authenticator parses to authenticate users), run the following from terminal:

dscl localhost -read /Search/Users/$USER >dscl-dump.txt

This will create the specified text file and write the info into it.
