ldap.inc

+
+
+This library provides the access to the LDAP server and its content.
+The $_SESSION['ldap'] +object reconnects automatically to the LDAP server on every page load.
+
+
+

1. Server handle

+All PHP functions which access LDAP require a server handle as +parameter. This is managed by ldap.inc.
+You can access it with $_SESSION['ldap']->server.
+
+
+

2. Object classes

+Account modules may want to check if the current LDAP server supports +all required object classes.
+$_SESSION['ldap']->objectClasses +contains a list of object classes and their attributes which is +read from the LDAP server.
+
+
+

3. En-/Decryption

+For security reasons sensitive data like user passwords should be +encrypted before storing in session.
+$_SESSION['ldap']->encrypt(<string>) +encrypts a string and returns a binary object. This can be decrypted +with $_SESSION['ldap']->decrypt(<object>)
+
+Ldap.inc will take care for the crypotographic key and if Blowfish or +MCrypt/AES is used.
+
+
+

4. Random values

+Ldap.inc contains a random integer value which is much more secure than +calling mt_rand(). The value +changes on every page load and is accessible in $_SESSION['ldap']->rand.
+If you need multiple values you can get a new value by calling $_SESSION['ldap']->new_rand().
