Hi,
I'm checking a user identity on a secure LDAP server using the
following code:

$ldapconn = ldap_connect("ldaps://myserver.mycompany.ch", 636 )
or die( "Can't connect to LDAP" ) ;

$ldapresult = ldap_search( $ldapconn,"o=mycompany,c=ch","cn=".$name);

if( $ldapresult ) {
$entries = ldap_get_entries( $ldapconn, $ldapresult ) ;
if( $entries["count"] ) {
$ldapbind = ldap_bind( $ldapconn, $entries[0]['dn'], $pwd ) ;
if( $ldapbind ) {
echo "Connected: user exists, password checked<br>" ;
}
}

This works ok if I submit the right $name and $pwd

Then I'd like to retrieve some data from the specified user, say
the givenName and sn but can't figure out a way to retrieve those
values using ldap_read or ldap_get_values

For example:
$results = ldap_read($ldapconn, "cn=myname,o=mycompany,c=ch",
'(objectclass=person)', array( "givenname", "sn" ) ) ;
$firstname = ldap_get_values($ldapconn, $results, "givenname" ) ;
$lastname = ldap_get_values($ldapconn, $results, "sn" ) ;

This fails on the ldap_get_values() stating that the supplied resource
is not a valid ldap result entry resource.


If I use something like:

$firstname = ldap_get_values($ldapconn, $ldapresult, "givenname" ) ;
$lastname = ldap_get_values($ldapconn, $ldapresult, "sn" ) ;

It fails too...

What is wrong?
Thanks for any help.


Sincerely,
Steve JORDI
