Looks like the top of my message got garbled
I was trying to say that I'm using ldap for the first time,
trying to write a script that authenticates a user against
our ldap server. etc. The rest came through.
Hope that makes more sense now :)

Subject: ldap usage
Hi,
authenticates a user against our ldap server.: User types in name and
password, and module sees if name and password check out right with the
ldap server.
I see that it's pretty straightforward to do this with:
import ldap
l = ldap.open('our.ldap.server')
try:
l.bind_s(username, password, ldap.AUTH_SIMPLE)
authenticated = True
except:
authenticated = False
But this uses the plaintext of the user's password. Is there a proper
way to send a cryptographic hash to the ldap server? Or do I have to
negotiate this through an ssl tunnel or something?
Thanks for any tips. Cheers!
