We had similar problem, so we opted to implement following ugly patch: http://koha-dev.rot13.org:8081/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=koha-ffzg.git;a=commitdiff;h=01bcd8bb8d84e85d29a0bb395757742cab06f102 (which I should really cleanup and submit at some point in future). Idea is simple: instead of having single administrative user which can do LDAP compare to check password, we just bind as user who is trying to login. Tricky part is rewrite of user [email protected] into LDAP DN syntax (uid=login,dc=domain,dc=com), but if this patten is o.k. for most users (I hope). If it's not, please speak now! :-) -- Dobrica Pavlinusic 2share!2flame [email protected] Unix addict.
