We installed LDAP and LDAP Help. LDAP Help
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://drupal.org/project/ldaphelp">http://drupal.org/project/ldaphelp</a>) was the key for us to get this
running.<br>
<br>
<h3>LDAP Help Module</h3>
<p>This module is meant to assist Drupal admins in configuring,
debugging, sharing, and submitting support and bug request related
to LDAP integration modules.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hey, I’ve poked around on drupal.org and
have installed the LDAP module to integrate drupal with AD,
but I’m a relative noob when it comes to LDAP and am having
some issues getting going and the documentation seems to be
lacking (or I’m looking in the wrong place).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">First off, what in your opinion is the best
LDAP module in terms of ease of configuration etc.? I
installed this one:
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://drupal.org/project/ldap">http://drupal.org/project/ldap</a>.
<o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have a few permission groups in AD: IT,
HR, Users (the latter being everyone else). IT would be
mapped to Administrator, HR to Moderator, and Users to
authenticated user.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All of our users on AD sit in OU=User
Accounts. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We haven’t got anything interesting
configured for AD as far as I know, so I’m using “Derive
Drupal role from DN” on the LDAP Authorization Configuration
page, but I’m not sure what to put there. Do I put OU, or CN,
or User Accounts, or OU=User Accounts? A lot of this is
looking like greek to me. Derive roles by attribute or entry
– those options I don’t quite get.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Help!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
