As long as those are the right attributes, and you have rights to read the ldap recpard, it should be fine.

The debug logs list what data is pulled from LDAP so you can confirm.


I turned on debug via:

Set($LogToSyslog, "debug");
Set($LogToScreen, "debug");
Set($LogToFile, 1);

And I am getting more data in the apache log, but I do not see anything that lists the specific attributes it is getting.

I can browse and read the attributes using ldp in windows.

Thanks for any help,

Tom
