I have a production code on which I do exactly the same you de (even creating new users). The only difference is that I don't user open/bind: conn = ldap.initialize('ldap://host') dn = '' # dn stuff try: lcon = conn.simple_bind_s(dn %username, password) print 'OK' return "200" except ldap.INVALID_CREDENTIALS, e: return "400" Hope that helps.
