We had similar problem, so we opted to implement following ugly patch: http://koha-dev.rot13.org:8081/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=koha-ffzg.git;a=commitdiff;h=01bcd8bb8d84e85d29a0bb395757742cab06f102 (which I should really cleanup and submit at some point in future). Idea is simple: instead of having single administrative user which can do LDAP compare to check password, we just bind as user who is trying to login. Tricky part is rewrite of user lo...@domain.com into LDAP DN syntax (uid=login,dc=domain,dc=com), but if this patten is o.k. for most users (I hope). If it's not, please speak now! :-) -- Dobrica Pavlinusic 2share!2flame dpav...@rot13.org Unix addict.
