RE: help php and ldap????

hi guys

i’m having trouble over at helpdesk.oneorzero.com

which has an free helpdesk app and i’m trying to add the ldap user hack, but still having problems where it compares to novell ldap instead of creating users into the database, like the phpbb which i’ve ldap working fine, i’m trying to get ldap working on the helpdesk app

anyone got any ideas and some help how to sort this app out???

visit the site and try the ldap mod and let me know i’m somehow have to add the following script to get it working i think.

<?php /** ldap2mysql.php Imports an ldap database (Novell NDS) into the mysql database for helpdesk Steve Beckwith, November 2003 **/ $ldapServer = 'ldap.server'; $ldapBase = 'ou=SOMETHING,o=SOMETHINGELSE'; $mysql_server = 'localhost'; $mysql_user = 'user'; $mysql_password = 'password'; $mysql_database = 'database'; $db = mysql_connect($mysql_server,$mysql_user,$mysql_pas sword); mysql_select_db($mysql_database, $db); // Try to connect to the server $ldapConn = ldap_connect($ldapServer); if (!$ldapConn) { die('Cannot Connect to LDAP server'); } // Bind anonymously $ldapBind = ldap_bind($ldapConn); if (!$ldapBind) { die('Cannot Bind to LDAP server'); } // Set the ldap options ldap_set_option($ldapConn, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3); // Search the LDAP server $ldapSearch = ldap_search($ldapConn, $ldapBase, "(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)"); $ldapResults = ldap_get_entries($ldapConn, $ldapSearch); $item = 0; do { // check for match against mysql database $sql = "SELECT id, first_name, last_name, user_name, email, office, phone FROM users WHERE user_name = '".$ldapResults[$item]["cn"][0]."'"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $db); $myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result); $lower_cn = strtolower($ldapResults[$item]["cn"][0]); if($myrow["user_name"] = $lower_cn && $myrow["id"] > 0) { // record exists - just update it // mysql command to update record $sql = "UPDATE users set user_name = '".$lower_cn."', first_name = '". $ldapResults[$item]["givenname"][0]."', last_name = '". $ldapResults[$item]["sn"][0]."', email = '".$ldapResults[$item]["mail"][0]."', phone = '". $ldapResults[$item]["telephonenumber"][0]."', office = '". $ldapResults[$item]["l"][0]."'

I have no clue what you are talking about… If it is third party scripts I’m sorry but you are in the wrong place. This forum is for developers of scripts not users of scripts. If you have a specific problem with a script and can tell us EXACTLY what is wrong then we may be able to help. Simply telling us it doesn’t work and suggesting we go to your site and look does not help us.
