• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

PHP and Active Directory

Hi

Hopefully they'll be some PHP gurus around here that can help me :)

I'm trying to get it so visitors to our intranet site are able to log
into the site with there normal login details. On a network using
win2k3, active directory etc.

Now my code at the moment seems to connect to AD but it fails when it
trys to bind.

<?php
//Connect to Active Directory
$ad = ldap_connect("hole.chase.local, 389") or
die("Couldn't connect to AD!"."<br />");
echo "connect result is " . $ad . "<br />";

//set protocol version
if (ldap_set_option($ds, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3)) {
echo "Using LDAPv3". "<br />";
} else {
echo "Failed to set protocol version to 3";
}

$ldaprdn = 'andy';
$ldappass = 'password';

//Bind to Active Directory
if ($ad){
$bd = ldap_bind($ad, $ldaprdn, $ldappass) or
die("Couldn't bind to AD!");
}
if ($bd){
echo "success"."<br />";
} else {
echo "fail"."<br />";
}
?>

Everytime it runs it dies, saying Couldn't bind to AD!

Checking the logs for apache i notice it reports

[client 127.0.0.1] PHP Warning: ldap_bind(): Unable to bind to
server: Can't contact LDAP server in F:\\Website\\htdocs\\example3.php
on line 23

Any ideas on how to solve this would be great. I'm not sure if its a config problem with active directory or whether its a problem with the code itself.

Cheers
 
i believe

$ad = ldap_connect("hole.chase.local, 389")

should be

$ad = ldap_connect("hole.chase.local", 389)
