Greetings all:
I've looked through php.net and scoured Google for a solution to an
issue I'm having with PHP and LDAP but have so far found nothing. I'm
trying to build an intranet site that uses the company LDAP (Active
Directory really) service but I can't seem to get around the
"Operations error" and other such messages when trying to bind.
On my server I'm running:
Fedora Core 4
Apache 2
PHP 5 compiled with OpenLDAP
I must confess that I'm very new to LDAP so it is likely that my
problem is inexperience, but it seems that this issue has been
resolved by others so I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong.
To shed more light on the topic, bug #30670 [ http://bugs.php.net/
bug.php?id=30670&edit=0 ] seems to fit my situation perfectly. As
some of the posts on that bug suggest, I've tried using
ldap_set_option($ldap, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION,3);
ldap_set_option($ldap, LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS,0);
between ldap_connect and ldap_bind but I still get the "Operations
error" message. Everyone seems to be able to get this to work as long
as they are running PHP4, but I have yet to see (or realize I've
seen) a solution from someone using PHP5. I've also found where
"blizzards at libero dot it" has posted "When querying a windows
2000/2003 AD you MUST use only SASL and not TLS (non supported)."
- Is this true?
Another thing worth mentioning here is that the company I work for
has allowed us to build our own intranet system for our Dept and
offers little to no support for server specs and settings, but I will
try to get any information to the list that might be helpful.
Thanks in advance for any advice or direction you can provide on this
topic.
