Just in case anyone was wondering, here's a bit more info. I'm not sure why some attributes show up the other way though:
<? $baseDN = "dc=mydomain,dc=com"; $bindDN = "uid=dumbuser,dc=mydomain,dc=com"; $bindPass = "mypass"; $linkID = ldap_connect(ldapServer,ldapPort); if ($linkID) if (ldap_bind($linkID,$bindDN,$bindPass) == false) DO SOME ERROR PARSING $filter = "uid=dumbuser"; $search = ldap_search($linkID,$baseDN,$filter); $entry = ldap_first_entry($linkID,$search); #<- ALL TOO IMPORTANT LINE $values = ldap_get_values($linkID,$entry,"departmentNumber"); for ($i = 0; $i < $values["count"]; $i++) print $i . ":" . $values[$i] . <br>\n"; ldap_close($linkID); ?> Now (for some reason I haven't figured out yet) if you don't do the ldap_first_entry() step, you cannot access all of the attribute values returned from the $search! You can test by commenting it out and changing the $values line to use the $search value as the second arg. I hope that helps someone. I could have used it for sure.
