<div style="text-align: left;"><big><span style="font-weight: bold;">Q:
Where is the ldap/config object?</span></big><br>
<br>
<big><span style="font-weight: bold;">A:</span></big> The ldap object
is in <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">$_SESSION['ldap']</span>
and the config object in <span
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">$_SESSION['config']</span>.<br>

<div style="text-align: left;"><big><span style="font-weight: bold;">Q:
How can I make LDAP operations, where is the user name and password?</span></big><br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><big>A:</big> </span>LAM
automatically reconnects to the LDAP server on every page load. You can
use <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">$_SESSION['ldap']->server</span>
which is the LDAP server handle.<br>
Be sure to include ldap.inc before (automatically included for account
modules).<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Example:</span> ldap_search(<span
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">$_SESSION['ldap']->server</span><span
style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"></span>, $suffix, $filter, $attributes)<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<big><span style="font-weight: bold;">Q: What is the LDAP suffix for
the different account types?</span></big><br>
<br>
<big><span style="font-weight: bold;">A:</span></big> Just call <span
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">$_SESSION['config']->get_Suffix($scope)</span>
where $scope is the account type (user,group, ...).<br>
Be sure to include ldap.inc before (automatically included for account
modules).<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Example:</span> $suffix = <span
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">$_SESSION['config']->get_Suffix('user')</span><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<big><span style="font-weight: bold;">Q: How can I check if the user is
really logged in and not calling the scripts by hand?</span></big><br>
<br>
<big><span style="font-weight: bold;">A:</span></big> After the user
successfully logged in to LAM the variable <span
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">$_SESSION['loggedIn']</span>
is set to true.<br>
