PHP and LDAP


mbrown

Recommended Posts

I was curious to see if anyone has used LDAP with their PHP application. If you have what benefits does it provide over using a MySQL database? I am looking at expanding my knowledge of using PHP with various authentication services.

 

I am not sure if this is in the right forum, if so please move it to the appropriate one.

LDAP can let you connect to an existing authentication system - probably Active Directory. If you're creating one of your own from scratch and don't need it tied to anything else then a database is probably the best way to go.
