PHP-LDAP & Windows Authentication -


tldr: what steps go through setup php's ldap authentication on big, internal intranet windows users? need checklist, please.

i'm thinking way around project intranet hosted on network 500-1,000 windows users. i'd use php's ldap functions can ad/windows user information without relying on people enter (i'd failsafe against failures , offer information entry alternative or error handler) , understand functionality, wondering ahead of time ldap has setup? compiled php on server that's hosted within same network/domain controller? don't need specifics or steps, generalized flow of needs setup on machine (like iis, etc..).

this on hand-compiled stack of windows newest apache, php, mysql, etc. (all of actively , functioning on localhost).

sorry if i'm vague, don't know how else word it?

thanks!

compiling php --with-ldap-flag (and optionally --with-ldap-sasl) sufficient use ldap within php. set can access ad-server ldap-based login , access group-membership , whatever needed.

you might find more information @ php.net/manual/ldap.installation.php

so have webserver php, db can either on webserver or on different machine , you've got ad should on separate machine.
