Has anyone done anything with php-ldap ??
I'm trying to write a php script that will return the users with there
gidNumber but what I have doesn't return the gidNumber.
I can post my script so far if it helps.

Does anyone have any experience of using mod_rewrite and regexp ?
It's just that I have a piece of software I use in college that uses
mod_rewrite and I'm having problem with users with a dot / period in
there usernames.
The line that is causing the problem is this one
RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)?/

Our college has decided to buy 45 Acer Aspire ones and I wondered if anyone has
any advice on how to
clone them all once I have one setup how I'd like, hopefully not one at a time
:-)
I use Norton Ghost on our PC's but not sure if we could use this on the Aspires.
Any pointers gratefully recei
