Thanks! I made sure you were listed in an @author tag.

I forgot to ask: are you willing to assign copyright on your code to the Horde Project? Thanks! Yes of course :-)

Also, should Jon even be listed as an author/copyright holder on the msad driver? This module is a sub-class of code that he wrote. Did he work on this too?

Okay. I've committed the auth driver with just a few cleanups as an experimental extension; once it has some more testing or you have time to come back to it we can add the appropriate conf.xml entries. Alright? Thanks!

Moving to framework

What is the status of this code, and are there still changes that need to be made to the passwd code? Or should this be strictly a framework ticket? Unfortunately I don't have any access to an MSAD server before september or october (2007). I can't perform any further tests until this period. The code I sent is used by two frameworks I configured for my clients. So, at this stage, I think this ticket is strictly a framework one.

See attachment : - I tested addUser but I had some problems with AD account activation, if someone could resolve it; - I run authentication with multiple alias for uid : array('initials', 'email', 'samaccountname') and works fine against a 2003 server; - I test removeUser and worked fine (with a bind user); - I test listUser, the problem is always to configure the appropriate filter. So maybe we can change a bit the configuration parameters (conf.xml) for : configure an array used to create the filter for user list and configure an array used to generate the path to the user's account in the AD schema... For some fonctionnalities such as resetPassword, maybe the right way is to use the authenticated user to bind against the server not an admin user ... (see password)

No. Btw it seems MSAD requires ldap over SSL (ldaps://hostspec:636) if we want to initialize users and passwords through ldap binding. Last year I wrote an extension of the Auth_ldap class called Auth_msad because I didn't want to have to configure a hook for authentication (it was against H 3.0): maybe the way is to separate AD specifics from non-AD servers in Password application and in Auth class? The way AD stores dates and manages expiration date of password seems to be really specific too. Yes, that sounds like a good idea. Patch? ;)

Do you know why AD returns binary (or seemingly binary) data? No. Btw it seems MSAD requires ldap over SSL (ldaps://hostspec:636) if we want to initialize users and passwords through ldap binding.

Do you know why AD returns binary (or seemingly binary) data? And can anyone verify that ldap_get_values_len() works properly with non-AD servers?

The ldap_get_values() function seems to not always work against an Active Directory. When checking password, use ldap_get_values_len() instead of ldap_get_values() in passwd/lib/Driver/ldap.php line 136.
