php code:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);          // place these two lines at the top of 
ini_set('display_errors', 1);    // the script you are debugging
phpinfo();

$ldapHost = "ldap://ip of server goes here, and works - connects fine, and authenticates with below id and password/just does not "contact LDAP server"";
$ldapPort = "363";

$ldapUser = "ID";
$ldapPswd = "PASSWORD";
$ldapLink = ldap_connect($ldapHost) or die("Can't establish LDAP connection");
ldap_bind($ldapLink, $ldapUser, $ldapPswd) or die("Can't bind to the server");
//$results = ldap_search($ldapLink, $dn, "givenName=Abby");

$dn = "CN=Abby Normal,DC=anormal";

[line 22] 	$results = ldap_search($ldapLink, $dn, "givenName=Abby");
 	var_dump($results);	 	

?>

[output]

Warning: ldap_search() [function.ldap-search]: Search: Can't contact LDAP server in /var/www/ldapTest1.php on line 22

bool(false)

[/output]

is the port wrong? is the $dn correct? otherwise, what might be wrong?

any help is appreciated!
