"u...@domain.cu" is not a DN as required in RFC 4511:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4511#section-4.2

MS AD directly accepts a userPrincipalName but this is a highly proprietary
feature => search the user's entry first.

I don't know perl's Net::LDAP and therefore I'm not sure what you mean with
"recursive search call". Personally I'd associate that with recursively
processing LDAP tree structure.

In case you're using http://www.python-ldap.org you're probably looking for
the asynchronous search methods:

I'm using python-ldap to create some entries on my openldap server.

The problem is that some of those entries have accented characters and

I'm wondering if there is any example or documentation on how to add

Did you check all the links on this page?

  http://www.python-ldap.org/download.shtml

There's a MSI installer for Python 2.4 on Win32:

IIRC with MS AD you can circumvent this limit by using the Simple Paged

You have to pass in a LDAP URI as documented here:

Use of compability function ldap.open() is deprecated and might vanish 
in future versions of python-ldap.

Glad to hear my posting helped somebody.

In our case, our domain controller was passing us referrals to the
Configuration, ForestDNSZones, and DomainDNSZones partitions of the
directory when we were doing SCOPE_SUBTREE scoped searches from the
root DN of an AD domain. When python-ldap tried to chase those
referrals it did so with an anonymous bind, hence the error.

Once we turned off the OPT_REFERRALS option, our only other
consideration was to be sure that, when iterating over our search
results, we just scrubbed out the referrals that were returned (based
on the referrals being lists and the real search results being
dictionaries). This is a bit quick and dirty, perhaps, but it's what
did the trick for us.

Actually it's easy (relevant code excerpt):

Still something went wrong with your bind. Since I don't know your DN I 
can't say anything. The DN should be a local user in this domain and not 
a user from another trusted domain. If you have a complicated AD setup 
with various domains and delegated trust connecting to the GC (global 
catalog) on port 3268 might be easier.



The simple bind works fine and returns a result, when i get the
result, it returns 97 meaning successful.


It would raise an exception if an LDAP error was received.


 So there was a successful
bind on the connection, right?


Don't know. Since I don't know your DN and AD domain configuation.

I've added a new example script ms_ad_bind.py to python-ldap's Demo/ 
directory illustrating all the possible bind methods:


http://python-ldap.cvs.sourceforge.net/*checkout*/python-ldap/python-ldap/Demo/ms_ad_bind.py?content-type=text%2Fplain

For getting the SASL stuff to correctly work your DNS has to be properly 
set up for AD (A RRs and matching PTR RRs for the DCs).

This clearly indicates that the bind was not successful and you're

If the user you're binding with has the right in AD to search the whole 
subtree you can start searching at the domain-level.



con = ldap.initialize("ldap://server.local";)
con.simple_bind_s('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', pass)


Just for the records: A simple bind with userPrincipalName only works on 
AD. It's not a LDAPv3 compliant bind request then (which requires a full 
DN).



result = con.search_ext_s(
  'OU=some office, DC=server, DC=local',
  ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE,
  "sAMAccountName=username", ['mail']
)[0][1]

for i in result:
  print "%s = %s" (i, result[i])

But i really need it to not require an OU.


It should work. I'm doing this quite often.


When I remove that part, it breaks.

Nope. Binary builds of C extension modules are only guaranteed to

2.5.x. So you have to compile it yourself if you don't find a 
suitable build of python-ldap for your platform and Python version.

Hi Waldemar,

thanks for the instructions.
I will try to build it one of these days and see how far i get.

As for the zip, i installed it and it works, i can use the ldap lib now.
So as you said, it indeed seems to be a problem with the Inno setup.
Anyway, if the zip works, i'm happy :)

If i get around to building it and if i succeed, i will post a more 
detailed report on how to do it.

Thanks,

I have wrapped the files from "setup.py build" and all required .dll
using Inno Setup.
Maybe Vista does not like the executable produced by Inno.

If you still want to try then unzip the following:
http://www.osuch.org/python-ldap.zip
into your "site-packages" and see how far you can get.

The detailed instructions on how to build would be quite long and I'm
sure I have forgotten some of the steps already but if you know about
"./configure make make install" dance and know how to use Google you
should be OK.

1. First install MinGW, Msys and msysDTK.
2. Then you need to compile openldap.  See:

   for reference.  You will need regex but you can skip Berkley DB

3. I have compiled openssl too but I have seen ready made libraries

   I do not have link handy at the moment.
4. The last step would be to run "setup.py build" for python-ldap.
Remove sasl2 from setup.cfg
   since cyrus-sasl does not seem to be available for MinGW.

See how far you can get with the above instructions.  If you get stuck

If you could keep track of the steps and came up with better

Hi Waldemar,

thanks for the installation file.
When i installed it, i got an error stating "The setup files are corrupt".
Anyway, i would be interested in knowing how to build the setup.
The only experience i have so far with building stuff via MinGW was with 
a Qemu build.

Regards,
Benedict

I'd appreciate if someone would provide Win32 builds of python-ldap on a
regular basis. Or at least a description what to do. I could add it to
python-ldap's web site.

Ciao, Michael.

I have managed to build it for myself using MinGW:

See if it will work for you

Depending on what you need you might want to dive into OpenLDAP's FAQ:

http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/300.html

There has been some discussion on the python-ldap-dev mailing list about
that. But there were no contributions coming out of that.

Ciao, Michael.

Maybe this message sent to the python-ldap-dev mailing list helps.

Subject: Experimental 2.2.0 Windows Build
Date: Mon, 4 Sep 2006 22:58:26 -0300
From: Sidnei da Silva <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello there,

I've managed to put together an experimental 2.2.0 build for Windows,
which can be found here:

  http://awkly.org/files/python-ldap-2.2.0.win32-py2.4.exe

I'm admittedly not an expert in compiling stuff, so if anyone with
more expertise can double-check what I've did:

  http://awkly.org/archive/compiling-python-extensions-on-mingw/


... specially the change from '-shared' to '-mdll -static' on the
arguments to 'ld', I would really *really* appreciate.

For the brave folks willing to try out the installer itself, you're at
your own risk, but please report back any issues.

If the build turns out to work fine and people are willing to bless
this as the official Windows build and upload it to sourceforge I
would be more than glad.

It was built with mingw against:

  openldap-2.2.29
  openssl-0.9.8b

Actually, we tend to speak whatever language the OP's experience suggests. 

I remember the other day, some Humphrey Bogart asked "Are there any waters
in Casablanca?" and some smart-_)_ replied "You know how to google, don't ya
honey?  You just put the little words together and... click search."

I ain't sure if Bogey eventually looked it up.

>if you dont know how to help people here... dont say "google it".

I never said "google it".  I presume you mean this post as a reply to all
other posters in this thread, right?  And you can bet your tiny _)_ that
Steve Holden does know how to help people here, something that can be proven
if you google for previous posts of him.

>groups.google was made to help! not to say google it!

groups.google was made to *archive* newsgroups. By using groups.google, you
just participate in the larger community of Usenet.  Google that strange
term "usenet".  It's kind of public email.  You send to a "newsgroup", then
everybody in the world can see your message, and anybody can reply, and so
forth.

You'll see in one of the top hits (for "usenet") that Google sometime
acquired the Usenet Archive of Deja (Deja.com, DejaNews.com etc), which are
archives of newsgroups since before Google existed.  There is no company
"google.groups" full of professionals getting paid to answer your questions.

Think of groups.google as an agency that allows you to travel in the
dangerous world of Usenet.

>i really dont not what kind of professional you are to say "google it!"

Assuming you reply to Steve Holden; you have false logic.  Like I said,
nobody ever gets paid for replying to newsgroup posts, so professionalism
does not get involved in any sense.  Or have you sent any money to the PSF
[Python Software Foundation] asking for support?  If that is the case, I
fully apologize, and please don't read the rest of my post! ;)

>you are smart boy!

I used to be before I grew up.

>i think your mom has much pride of you!

Especially since she will shortly be a grand mother.

>google it to learn more than say "google it!"

Your writing style hints you are 14-15 yrs old, but you can also be some
non-native English speaker (as I am), even an IT professional (the topic of
LDAP does not concern the average adolescent :); in either case, perhaps you
might be able and not entirely bored to read more than a few pages:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Let this be your guide in your travels in Usenet.  Show you did your
"homework" before asking others.

You see, imagine yourself after about 15-20 years of using computers and
discussing them with others (in private or on the internet), and new people
keep coming all the time asking the same questions that have been discussed,
answered and beaten to death dozens of times before.  Steve's using
computers for longer than that, and he bothered at least to tell you the
obvious step you didn't take: to google your question so you find the
previous related discussions.

You should thank him for offering his time, because his reply was helpful
even if you don't understand it; he directed you to the whereabouts of the
answer to your question.  Ask groups.google about

group:comp.lang.python ldap

and work your way from there.  When you come back here after you've grokked
the "Smart Questions" document, I (and Steve I am sure, and lots of others
who didn't bother to reply as Steve did) will be more than glad to help you
further your knowledge of Python.

Cheers, btaranto.

You can't beat Steve with a pair of arses, because Steve's hand is
physically higher than your arse (even considering a big age-gap between you
two).

If you said o0o, I'd call your bluff a zero and raise an eye (make that a
capital eye).  I also believe that I could fit a db in there (as thin as the
crack may be), but (o)(o) would be cozier as a receptacle.

Now, let us all smart_)_s peace off.

PS should anyone grab the chance and mix ethnic jokes based on my
nationality in a reply, I'll have to tell you that I have been offended by
professionals during my army service and you'll barely scratch my back :)

You are already using the synchronous search method which indeed return
the search results.

So this should read:

result_data=cnx.search_s(baseDN,searchScope,searchAttrs,retrieveAttrs)

> result_type, result_data = cnx.result(ldap_result_id, 0)

You don't need this if you just want to use synchronous search method.
