[Xerte] Using toolkits with LDAP

[Julian Tenney]

I'll let Pat chime in here, but it would definitely be worthwhile trying
this with the pre-release version of toolkits we now have ready for
final testing out in the community. We can send you the files, or make a
link available. If others have access to a server and would like to try
the pre-release version please let us know. We'd like to give a people a
chance to discover any issues there might be in rolling this out to
disparate systems,

 

I'll ask Pat to zip it all up and put some installation instructions
together. We would like to have version 1.0 completed by the end of this
week, so any final feedback would be brilliant,

 

Many thanks,

 

J

Dear List, 

I installed toolkits 0.9 from the website in my local XAMPP. I also have
a working locale installation of OpenLDAP (Mac OS X). The structure is
as follows: 

dc=example,dc=com 
   ou=people 
       cn=user1 

In Xerte I use the following settings: 

$site->ldap_host = "ldap://localhost"; 
$site->ldap_port = 389; 

$site->bind_pwd="supersecret"; 
$site->basedn="dc=example,dc=com"; 
$site->bind_dn = 'cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com'; 

When I try to login with "user1" Xerte it tells me: "Sorry that password
combination was not correct". 
I think Xerte doesn't know which attribute to look for the username?! 

Peter
