PHP - Ldap, Php And Ad Groups

Hello everyone,

I'm new to PHP and I have a question about a PHP Login page using LDAP.

I have received a project from my boss. A project to digitizing a form. Well having that part done, my boss said to make login page that uses LDAP.

A page that using the username and password from the AD to login and redirected to a different page. So that the person doesn't have to remember different usernames and passwords.

Is there a simple script, doing this?

Kind regards,

Hi guys,
I have this problem and id appreciate all your advice in helping solve it.

I'm working on a service with is "cloud" hosted.
However I want it so when a person employed by Corporation A logs onto myservice.corporationa.com they enter their Corporation A LDAP details but somehow that sends them to myservice.com and authenticates them. I know how to do the get LDAP details part to put on myservice.corporationa.com but no idea how to do the rest and make it send back etc.

Any ideas?

Many many thanks in advance.

(PS - If this all makes sense please do let me know)

Hi I am finding that I get a random LDAP search fail the initial time i run a script against 2008R2 when I refresh all is ok ? PHP 5.2.5 get the same thing with the latest version of PHP. any ideas ? its as if the DC is sleeping until you give it a nudge, running on 2008R2 running on vmware.

I am having trouble authenticating users with LDAP. I can authenticate users when I use "CN" or "givenName" but not when I use "samaccountname", which is the username. CN is just the first + last name.

Does anyone know why only CN and not samaccountname works?


$strUsername = "test"; 
$strPassword = "pass";

$dn = 'samaccountname=' . $strUsername . ',OU=Staff,DC=mydomain,DC=com';

$strDomain = "ldap://localhost/";

$bolAuth = false;

// connect to ldap server
$port = "389";
$objConn = ldap_connect($strDomain);

if ($objConn)
{
if ( $strPassword != null )
{
$bolAuth = ldap_bind($objConn, $dn, $strPassword);
if ( $bolAuth ) {

$search_id = ldap_search($objConn, "OU=Staff,DC=mydomain,DC=com", "(samaccountname=".$strUsername.")");
$entries = ldap_get_entries($objConn, $search_id);
if ($entries["count"] == 1) {
$first_name = $entries[0]["givenname"][0];;
$last_name = $entries[0]["cn"][0]; 

}
}  

}


ldap_close($objConn);
}

if($bolAuth==false){
echo "fail";
return false;
}

Hi,
I'm working with the LDAP directory, and using PHP to access it.

I am able to extract the name, departments and phone nos. from the directory.

On the display page, i am looking to make the name column sort A-Z. (Like the "name" will be clickable and will sort the names from A-Z and Z-A )

Would appreciate if someone could suggest approaches to achieve this using PHP

Thanks

Hi Everyone,

Hopefully someone will be able to assist with my problem. Basically, my situation is that we have a server which hosts multiple websites using multiple IP address. One of the new sites we are moving to this server needs an LDAP connection outside of our network. The outside LDAP has already been enabled to accept requests from the specific IP assigned to this site. However, other sites on this server are using other IP addresses.

It seems as if the LDAP authentication request is getting sent by a IP address which is not authorized by the firewall on the outside LDAP server. Thus trouble authenticating.

So, my question is, is there a way to force the ldap_bind request to use a specific IP address to send the request for authentication? Supposedly this can be done using an event handler. However, I don't have much experience with event handlers so am not sure how to go about doing this.

I would appreciate any help or ideas to resolve this situation. Thanks!

Hi,
I am trying to search the employeeid value taken from an mssql db against a LDAP database.
It works but when it cannot found the employeeid on the LDAP db it stops with this error:

Catchable fatal error: Object of class variant could not be converted to string in ldap2.php on line 101

Here is the code.
i've tried with ->value without success .

Please help me.

$sql = "SELECT EMPL.MATR
FROM DOS
ORDER BY DOS.MATR";
 
$result = mssql_query($sql);
while ($myrow = mssql_fetch_array($result))
{

$matr = $myrow['MATR'];
$matr = intval($matr);

//echo $matr;

$strRS = "Select givenname,sn,displayName,mail,SAMAccountName,employeeid,cn from 'LDAP://dom.local/DC=dom,DC=local' where objectClass='user' and employeeid='$matr'";

$RS->Open($strRS, $Conn, 1, 1);
echo $RS['cn'];
echo "<br>";

Hello

I am after some guidance on the following scenario:

I have a news page that pulls from a database and would like to seperate it out by year, see below

2010

Bulletin 2 - 23/11/2010 - Some news here.....
Bulletin 1 - 21/11/2010 - Some news here.....



2009

Bulletin 2 - 23/11/2009 - Some news here.....
Bulletin 1 - 21/11/2009 - Some news here.....



How can i do this automatically and seperate them out by year like above

I am new to PHP. I have been trying to do some research online for a few days and not getting very far. I feel like I know less now than I did before I started.

Here's the story:

I've set up a LAMP server that runs a Wiki and AppGini (http://www.bigprof.com/appgini/) - AppGini allows you to "Create web database applications instantly without writing any code" - The only downside we have with it, is it's got it's own set of user accounts. My team all logs in with the default admin account which isn't a big deal but we'd prefer to use LDAP to AD for reasons I won't get into right now.

I emailed AppGini support and asked about LDAP integration. Their response was that it's "a little bit of work" and "You can modify the login authentication function to authenticate using LDAP ... please see the example code he http://code.activestate.com/recipes/101525-ldap-authentication/ (needs some modifications to work with AppGini)"

I've googled around and found 2 dozen different LDAP PHP samples. I've gotten some of them to work. By work I mean they connect to my domain controller and say "success" I'm not actually logged into anything.

So I'm looking for a little help from square one. I need to have a better understanding of how things are supposed to work so I know where I'm supposed to go with all of this. Where do I start? What do I do? What would YOU do?

i have authors with different articles on a certain topic. What i want is, displaying the name of the author only once and all his titles under his name. I also want a dynamic table where i display three authors in each row and soon as there a fourth author a new row must start. My problem now is is the title is also being filtered and i can only display one title.

Thanks in advance

Hello,   I am sending an email via phpmailer to a large group of recipients.   I bcc'd the entire group which of course failed after the max limit was reached so I thought what about sending in chunks....   Im just trying to figure out how to loop through the groups of bcc's   basically Im thinking something like this...

$mail = new PHPMailer(true);
$mail->IsSMTP();
//setup from, replyto etc here...

//email query here to get emails in array $bccz..

//chunk results
$newArray = array_chunk($bccz, 50, false);

// Now process array_chunk()
$i = 0;
foreach ($newArray as $inner_array) {
    $i++;
        while (list($key, $value) = each($inner_array)) {
                     addBCC($value['email']);

}$subject = '=?UTF-8?B?'.base64_encode($cobig).'?=';
$mail->Subject = $subject;
$mail->IsHTML(true);

$mail->Body = $ermail;
$mail->Send();
}
$mail->clearBcc();
}

Just wondering if someone can tell me if this basic logic is right?

I have a group of 4 radio buttons. my mysql database knows which one the user selected previously when they stored some information. I now wish to display the same buttons but have radio button checked that the user chose before. I know this can be done but having one of those mind melt moments where I cannot think of the solution

so I have 4 buttons that look like this

Code: [Select]
        <input type="radio" name="clarity" id="clarity" value="Opaque">
      Opaque<br>
      <input type="radio" name="clarity" id="clarity" value="Deep">
      Deep<br>
      <input type="radio" name="clarity" id="clarity" value="Mid">
      Mid<br>
      <input type="radio" name="clarity" id="clarity" value="Pale">
      Pale<br></td>

I just need to attached a checked field to the correct item

Hi,
I know very little about binding PHP to AD. At the minute it is setup to Authenticate against AD (Via IIS), then from the that I have the following:

Declare's the Logon_Name variable, so that it can be used to 'print' buttons, and links i.e. if ($logon_name==("Administrator")); {echo admin link here'};

$logon_name = basename($_SERVER['AUTH_USER']);

What I would ideally like to do is be able to find the group the user is a member of, this way we can create custom AD groups like intra_admin and then if they are a member they will be able to see certain links to pages etc.

Any ideas, I hope this makes sence

Hi   I have a two dimensional array and would like to output the results in groups depending upon one of the fields in the array. While i have managed this and have figured out how to create a header for each group, i would now like to create a footer (end of group) line where i could create a subtotal or similar.   my working code with the header is below but how do i add the footer?

$group = null;
for($i=0;$i<count($rowKitCharges);$i++){

		if($rowKitCharges[$i]['SubCategory'] != $group)
    {
         //echo the group header
         echo "<br><b>" . $rowKitCharges[$i]['SubCategory'] . "</b><br>";
				
				$group = $rowKitCharges[$i]['SubCategory'];
      }
    
		
		echo $rowKitCharges[$i]['HireID'] . " " . $rowKitCharges[$i]['SubCategory'];
                echo "<br>";
	
}

Thanks Jon
