Topic on Extension talk:LDAP Authentication

Hi,

I'm using MediaWiki 1.16.5 and the latest LdapAuthentication extensions from svn trunk on an Ubuntu server that already uses LDAP successfully with a Plone CMS and phpBB.

I've added the configuration below and as you can see from the logs, it seems to connect to LDAP fine (indeed, removing the config results in non-LDAP users being told their username doesn't exist), however, no user can login successfully, all are presented with the error: "Incorrect password entered. Please try again.". I've triple checked against the ldap db that the passwords are correct.

The only thing I can see that might be wrong in the logs is the capitalisation of the first letter of the uid.

Any ideas?

LocalSettings.php:

require_once($IP."/extensions/LdapAuthentication/LdapAuthentication.php");
$wgAuth = new LdapAuthenticationPlugin();
$wgLDAPDomainNames = array(
  'anonymous-coward'
);
$wgLDAPServerNames = array(
  'anonymous-coward' => '127.0.0.1'
);
$wgLDAPSearchStrings = array(
  'anonymous-coward' => 'uid=USER-NAME,ou=people,dc=anonymous-coward,dc=org'
);
$wgLDAPEncryptionType = array(
  "'anonymous-coward'"=>"clear"
  );
$wgLDAPDebug = 3;
$wgDebugLogGroups["ldap"] = "/tmp/ldapdebug.log" ;

Well, this is obviously wrong:

$wgLDAPEncryptionType = array(
  "'anonymous-coward'"=>"clear"
  );

It should be:

$wgLDAPEncryptionType = array(
  "anonymous-coward"=>"clear"
  );
