[SOLVED] LDAP - Search problems

[Pezzoni]

Hi,

 

I'm working on an script to get the details of users from their 'mailNickname', and I can't get it to function correctly. Looking up someone on their 'sn' works fine, and if I go into my exchange mailbox, I can look someone up using their 'alias' (which is, I think, equivilent to mailNickname) with no problems.

 

The code I have:

echo 'Connecting: <br />';
$ds=ldap_connect("ldaphost.whereever.uk"); 
echo "Connect result is $ds <br />";

$r = ldap_bind($ds);
echo "Bind result is $r <br />";

$sr = ldap_search($ds, "o=Whatever, c=GB", "mailNickname=blah");
echo "Search result is " . $sr . "<br />";

echo "Number of entires returned is " . ldap_count_entries($ds, $sr) . "<br />";

    echo "Getting entries...<p>";
    $info = ldap_get_entries($ds, $sr);
    echo "Data for " . $info["count"] . " items returned:<p>";

echo '<pre>';
print_r($info);
echo '</pre>';

    echo "Closing connection";

ldap_close($ds);

 

Am I searching on the wrong attribute, or doing something else totally wrong?

 

Thanks,

On further investigation, I've discovered a MySQL database on the network containing the details I need, so I don't actually need to use the LDAP stuff. Thanks anyway.
