Scott's code was exactly what I was looking for, the only thing I don't understand is, how do I authenticate a user's password.I don't think we want to make it so that all users can connect to the LDAP server.
ldap_simple_bind_s() does that. There's an example of this in the code that you looked at. instead of hard-coding the userid/password in the LOGIN_ACCT & LOGIN_PASSWD variables, ask the user for them.
Or do we? I was kind of thinking that one account would be able to connect and do a query of a user profile and password? How do I get the password to authenticate it?
Are you talking about something different than I am? Are you talking about logging into the LDAP server? Or are you talking about retrieving a password that's stored in a field in the LDAP database?
