Hi, I am the original author of the container. I guess the others are around here, too. I have prepared a patch against the current CVS version (which seems to be broken, parse errors ...). The relevant part should apply cleanly to the current release. --- Container/LDAP.php 27 Mar 2006 05:39:28 -0000 1.32 +++ Container/LDAP.php 5 May 2006 06:59:00 -0000 @@ -564,6 +564,12 @@ $entry_id = @ldap_first_entry($this->conn_id, $result_id); $user_dn = @ldap_get_dn($this->conn_id, $entry_id); + // as the dn is not fetched as an attribute, we save it anyway + if (is_array($attributes) && in_array('dn', $attributes)) { + $this->_debug('Saving DN to AuthData', __LINE__); + $this->_auth_obj->setAuthData('dn', $user_dn); + } + // fetch attributes if ($attributes = @ldap_get_attributes($this->conn_id, $entry_id)) { I will apply this patch to CVS if none of the others reject this change.
