Comment: LDAP user authentication?

Alf83:

Thanks Alf, you got me going into the right direction. It stopped complaining about can't bind. However, when i start 'slapd -d 256' to see what acutally hits the ldap server, it seems that:

• I have to provide fields for parameters 3 and 4 (dn of user, password to bind to the ldap server.)
• i don't have to provide a password anymore for the user to be accepted

I expected from the code that the cn was searched for and returned, but this is not the case.

I'll dig some more ...
