As you can see below I'm not getting any user info when I do a LDAP search to the security group. I want to use the $_SERVER[remote_user]
to check if the user is a member of this group. I would also like to retrieve the info of this user and update the sql database with it. Is this possible?
$dn = "CN=Intra,OU=Common Security Groups,DC=mydomain,DC=local";
$filter = "(member=*)";
$ad = ldap_connect("IP") or die("Couldn't connect to AD!");
ldap_set_option($ad, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3);
$bd = ldap_bind( $ad, "username@mydomain.local", "password") or die("Can't bind to server.");
$sr = ldap_search($ad,$dn,$filter);
$entries = ldap_get_entries($ad, $sr);
print_r($entries);
Returns this:

Everything worked fine when I used the normal DN:
$dn = "OU=Mail enabled users,OU=Bergen,DC=mydomain,DC=local";
But a AD expert told me this was a big NO-NO and that I should use Security Groups instead :\
