Connecting and Disconnecting

constructor($options=array())

When instantiating adLDAP it will automatically make a connection to your Domain Controller using the settings defined within the class itself, see configuring variables

require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/adLDAP.php');
$adldap = new adLDAP();

The settings can also be overridden when the class is first called by specifying an array with your options.

Called like $adldap = new adLDAP($options); Where $options is an array with one or more of the following keys

• string account_suffix

• string base_dn

• array domain_controllers

• string admin_username

• string admin_password

• boolean real_primarygroup

• boolean use_ssl

• boolean use_tls

• boolean recursive_groups

• integer ad_port

• boolean sso

  require_once(dirname(FILE) . '/adLDAP.php'); $adldap = new adLDAP(array('base_dn'=>'DC=domain,DC=local', 'account_suffix'=>'@domain.local'));

destructor()

adLDAP will NOT automatically disconnect at the end of the script. There is a need to specifically close your connection unless you need to perform a re-connection

connect()

Performs a connection to your domain controller. You should never need to call these functions directly unless you specifically wish to change connection parameters mid-script.

For example

require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/adLDAP.php');
$adldap = new adLDAP();
/* Some code here */

$adldap->close();
$adldap->setAdminUsername('Admin.User');
$adldap->setAdminPassword('SomePassword');
$adldap->connect();
/* Some code here */

close()

Disconnect from the domain controller.
