Casey,

Forgot to add that if you want to use an encrypted connection  between
Bugzilla and your LDAP server (which I would definitely recommend if
these passwords are used for other services), you'd have to use the
start_tls() function that is a part of Net::LDAP inside of
./Bugzilla/Auth/LDAP.pm.

Additionally, in case you'd like to take a look at our copy, I've sent
it to your email address.
What changes did you make? are they specific to your site? or are they just
to make it work properly?
Well I get an error saying I have invalid user name and password and I know
that the username and password I am using all exist on the LDAP server I am
connecting to. Now this user that I am trying to login as already exists in
Bugzilla, but for this test I made sure that the passwords match. the LDAP
server is running off of is a Novell NDS server. could somebody tell me
where I should be looking for information on what is going wrong?



Regards,
Mike Morgan

Casey,

LDAP works great if you use 2.17.4 and you configure the parameters
correctly.  When you test, make sure you have the right Perl modules
installed.

At Oregon State University we use a 2.17.4 install that uses our central
LDAP server for authentication (which is used for many other services).
It uses an encrypted connection and works great for us.

Mike Morgan

Does anyone know the current State of the LDAP authentication in
Bugzilla 2.17.4? I was looking at the docs and it says be cautious.
