@brad: can you show me some sample code for this?
@david: i tried different configuration options but with no luck, i can

There are logging calls liberally sprinkled through the source of
django-auth-ldap. Django doesn't really give you any help with logs
out-of-box (I suppose the argument is python already has its logging
package (quite the baroque one) that you can setup how you want), they
may be going nowhere?
For debugging rather than production logging needs, there are packages
that can inject log messages encountered during answering requests into
the html response [1] - extremely useful.
I'm still stuck for now with our homegrown ldap auth we grew before
django-auth-ldap appeared, but I've been keeping an eye on the
django-auth-ldap package as a possible replacement. I can confirm it
worked completely straightforwardly on python 2.5 and django 1.1.1
(including log messages when auth failed etc.) - at least trunk when
checked out from the repo rather than easy_installed or whatever -
here's the entirety of the relevant settings.py config I used for my
last test, as per the documentation:
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
'django_auth_ldap.backend.LDAPBackend',
...
)
# I have a slapd setup for testing on my dev box.
AUTH_LDAP_SERVER_URI = "ldap://localhost/";
import ldap
from django_auth_ldap.config import LDAPSearch
# If you can't anonymously find users, you might need values here.
AUTH_LDAP_BIND_DN = ""
AUTH_LDAP_BIND_PASSWORD = ""
# obviously I used our actual path here
AUTH_LDAP_USER_SEARCH = LDAPSearch("ou=users,dc=example,dc=com",
ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE, "(uid=%(user)s)")

- apparently no longer maintained (still works though):

has a superset of its functionality though I haven't got around to
switching to it yet.
