Thanks for the heads-up.

To add this to the next release, we need:

1. Patch (diff of your changes).

2. Upgrade procedure for sites still using servername/port.

But if you really want to include it, I'll do a diff of the changes

Would be great if you don't mind.

Hi guys,

Im wondering whether anybody uses this plugin? I have access to an LDAP to authenticate some users to and it works great, thanks multitool. Is there a way I can modify the code to check not only the cn of the user but also the gidnumber of the user please?

the required ldapsearch im after would be something like

# ldapsearch -h ldap1 -x -b ou=people,dc=office,dc=private "(&(uid=bigbadbob)(gidNumber=1001))"

im assuming id need to modify the ldap.plugin within my /var/www/FUDforum/plugins/ldap/ directory. Any line beginning $search would know doubt need changing...but im guessing at the syntax, i really do need to learn php dont I..

original: //$search = ldap_search($connection, $ini['LDAP_DN'], $ini['LDAP_UID'] .'='. $login);
idiots attempt: $search = ldap_search($connection, $ini['LDAP_DN'], '"(&(gidnumber=1001)(' . $ini['LDAP_UID'] .'='. $login . '))"');

hi,

thanks for the plugin!

i've added a tweak to get out a nice ALIAS (it's easier to find users in this environment when username and real-name is displayed in usergroup-lists - REQUIRES 'use aliases'-setting in general settings), from our ugly AD-Names like "SURENAME Gname" automatically:

on adding the user:

//not sure about the 1st line but i changed it in case of weird chars given at the ldap-server
$uent->login = _esc($login);
$uent->name = ucwords(strtolower($info[0]['cn'][0]));
$uent->alias = _esc($login)." (".ucwords(strtolower($info[0]['cn'][0])).")";

and on syncing the following: - ALIAS = username (Surename Gname)

    // Sync user details, if enabled

    if (!empty($ini['LDAP_EMAIL'])) {
      q('UPDATE '. $GLOBALS['DBHOST_TBL_PREFIX'] .'users SET email='. _esc($info[0][ $ini['LDAP_EMAIL'] ][0]) .' WHERE login='. _esc($login));
    }
    
     //wl: 20130706 David Kikl - Names + Alias style: "netxxx (Surename Gname)"
    if (!empty($ini['LDAP_NAME'])) {
      q('UPDATE '. $GLOBALS['DBHOST_TBL_PREFIX'] .'users SET name='. _esc(ucwords(strtolower($info[0][$ini['LDAP_NAME']][0]))) .' WHERE login='. _esc($login));
    }
    if (!empty($ini['LDAP_ALIAS'])) {
      q('UPDATE '. $GLOBALS['DBHOST_TBL_PREFIX'] .'users SET alias='. _esc($login." (".ucwords(strtolower($info[0][$ini['LDAP_NAME']][0])).")").' WHERE login='. _esc($login));
      
      #dbg('REFRESH_ALIAS: UPDATE '. $GLOBALS['DBHOST_TBL_PREFIX'] .'users SET alias='. _esc($login." (".ucwords(strtolower($info[0][$ini['LDAP_NAME']][0])).")").' WHERE login='. _esc($login));
    }//else dbg("REFRESH_ALIAS: empty ALIAS?");

for the editing mask below i just mentioned the code i've inserted:

<p>HARDCODED LDAP Attributes for forum user alias:<br />
<b>username (Surename Gname)</b> (<- SURENAME GnAmE / surename GNAME / ect.)<br />
(wl/dk alias)</p>

<p>HARDCODED LDAP Attributes for forum user real name:<br />
<b>Surename Gname</b> (<- SURENAME GnAmE / surename GNAME / ect.)<br />
(wl/dk alias)</p>

i tried to get aroud some debugging troubles for using the fud-forum default debugging-functionality see post http://fudforum.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&goto=168746&#msg_168746
