Once you've got all the required stuff, you've to download LdapAuthentication.php, put it into the includes directory, and make some changes to LocalSettings.php (explained at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/LDAP_Authentication) Many users using LDAP authentication have shared their experiences in the section "User Provided Examples" at: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/LDAP_Authentication_Configuration_Examples Also see the talk pages for these two articles. Many FAQs and queries have been answered there. If you run into any problems, just drop a note at the these talk pages. This command will show you list of all compiled modules: php -m If ldap is in the list, your installation is fine. If not, install the suitable package php-ldap/php4-ldap/php5-ldap: For Debian etal: apt-get install php5-ldap For RPM-based distros such as Fedora: yum install php5-ldap For other operating systems or distros, I don't have much idea. But, asking the question at any PHP forum should help. -- Utkarshraj Atmaram http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Utcursch
