Active Directory Login Setup for XAMPP

Hmm.. using .net, there no much trouble in implementing simple AD login for a project.

But for PHP, there are some files that need to be configure.

First, check this file in your c:\windows\system32\

-libeay32.dll
-ssleay32.dll

Then, go to your xampp directory and find httpd.conf. Open it through notepad and find this line

-LoadModule authnz_ldap_module modules/mod_authnz_ldap.so
-LoadModule ldap_module modules/mod_ldap.so

Make sure you uncomment it. To uncomment it, remove symbol '#'

But wait, there are still work to be done.

In your xampp directory, go to \apache\bin\
Find php.ini, and find line with

extension_dir

Uncomment this by removing symbol ";" and make sure the direcory path for your extension is correct.
For mine, "C:\Projects\xampp\php\ext\"

Go to that directory, and check this file php_ldap.dll is exist



Then find this line

extension=php_ldap.dll

Remove the comment by removing symbol ";"

Restart apache. This is tutorial not include code to bind ldap in PHP (login through AD)
