PHPLDAPAdmin and OpenLDAP

[rickyjones]

I'm having problems using PHPLDAPAdmin with OpenLDAP.

I'm trying to setup LDAP for use with Samba for a domain project (to see how feasible it is). I followed the instructions from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer to install and setup the initial OpenLDAP database.

The only thing I changed was the domain (dn=example,dn=local) and the passwords assigned.

I then installed PHPLdapAdmin and when I try to login using either the admin account or the user account that the OpenLDAP Wiki page used I get the following error:

Could not bind to the LDAP server.

LDAP said: Undefined attribute type
Error number: 0x11 (LDAP_UNDEFINED_TYPE)
Description: The attribute type specified is invalid.

Anyone have any idea what needs to be fixed? I can connect fine anonymously but I need to login to make any changes.

Thanks!

Solved.

In the phpLDAPadmin config.php file I changed the line:

$ldapservers->SetValue($i,'login','attr','dn');


To:
$ldapservers->SetValue($i,'login','attr','cn');


Now I can login with the Admin user.

Anyone know how to contact the writer of the wiki article (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingphpLDAPadmin)? I recommend that the author update their directions to show what I had to do. Obviously the default install, which he writes about, does not work so easily with OpenLDAP based on the original directions.
