Adam
Thanks for that , I was  reading your earlier LDAP problems on the
list.....
I'm pretty much doing what you are, however I'm using port 389, which MS
active directory uses , I'm assuming that you've set up some Open LDAP
server that uses port 123?

Cheers
AJ

Hi Andy

We have XOT working with LDAP using the following settings:

Host: ldapserver.net.marjon.ac.uk
Port: 123
LDAP PW: password for XERTE LDAP USER account
Base: OU=Staff,DC=net,DC=marjon,DC=ac,DC=uk
Bind: CN=XERTE LDAP USERNAME,CN=Users,DC=net,DC=marjon,DC=ac,DC=uk

Not sure if that answers any of your questions?

I'm not sure if you will have the answer to this, however.....
We've just received an Ubuntu-based server as part of the In-folio
project, and it has Xerte toolkits installed I'm trying to set up LDAP
authentication.. it seems fairly straight forward using management.php
BTW I've got LDAP/AD working in Moodle and on other Ubuntu servers with
Drupal and Moodle)

However, I can't log into the Xerte system with LDAP/Active directory
accounts Looking at recents posts to the list, I'm still confused about
the LDAP bind option Is this a user that needs basic read access to
Active directory, and should this have the corresponding password set in
'LDAP password' ?
Do I need to set up LDAP in another area of Xerte?

Cheers
