PHP3 + OpenLdap



I have verified that the PHP3 web scripting language (www.php.net) and
openldap-1.0 work perfectly well together.  Like OpenLdap, PHP3 is a free,
open-source project.

There is a little online demo available here:

  http://www.lerdorf.on.ca/ldap.html

To build PHP with openldap support, simply add "--with-ldap" to the
./configure line when building PHP.  It will by default look for the
libraries in /usr/local/lib and header files in /usr/local/include.  If
you have installed openldap somewhere else, use "--with-ldap=/path". 

Writing a web-based ldap management system should be trivial using PHP3.
Have a look at http://www.php.net/manual/ref.ldap.php3 for the PHP LDAP
documentation.  I would be happy to assist anybody interested in
spearheading such a project.

By the way, any chance of a cvs web interface to the openldap source tree? 
See http://ca.php.net/cvsweb.cgi for an example.
