Hey all, we are rolling out a company intranet with some cool bells / whistles and want to allow them to change their domain (windows / AD) passwords. It looks like this is possible with php and some ldap commands, and my current situation is a rh box with php 4.3.1 and the phpinfo page show the following for what was configured;
'./configure' '--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs' '--enable-versioning' '--with-mcrypt=/root/apache_mods/libmcrypt-2.5.3' '--with-mysql=/root/apache_mods/mysql-3.23.52-pc-linux-gnu-i686' '--with-pgsql=/usr/local/pgsql' '--with-gd=/root/apache_mods/gd-1.8.4/' '--with-jpeg-dir=/root/apache_mods/jpeg-6b' '--with-png-dir=/root/apache_mods/libpng-1.2.4/' '--with-xpm-dir=/root/apache_mods/imlib-1.9.14/' '--with-dom=/usr/include/libxml2/libxml' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-track-vars' '--with-zlib' '--enable-bcmath'
I didn't see any ldap mods, so I think I need to recompile php (good asumption huh)... so my BIG question, do I recompile a new version 4.x with ldap support or move to 5? I am sure 5 will support all the current php code we have, but is there any downside? Either way, comments are appreciated, as well as any help on what to or not to include to make this work? If NEone has any comments or ideas or even some code already done to change their AD passwords, it will be greatly appreciated.
Regards....
