connecting to LDAP with bind_dn and password

Hello,

I am new to this list and want to share the changes I have made to the rcube_ldap.inc to access our LDAP directory (bind to LDAp with a dedicated readonly user)

I saw that there is a already a bind function but since I could not figure out how to use it ( i have only little programming skills) i have put the code directly into the connect function.

At the moment it is just a hardcoded hack :)

$ldaprdn  = 'binddn';         // bind rdn or dn
$ldappass = 'bindpassword';     // bind password
// end modification

if ($this->conn) {
    // binden zum ldap server
    if (ldap_set_option($this->conn, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3)) {
    $ldapbind = ldap_bind($lc, $ldaprdn, $ldappass);
        // check bind
    if (!$ldapbind) {
            raise_error(array("type" => "ldap", "message" =>

"Could not bind to LDAP server"),TRUE);

        }
    }
    else
    raise_error(array("type" => "ldap", "message" => "Could not

bind to LDAP server with LDAP_v3"),TRUE);

// end modification

maybe it is of use for somebody.
