Still no luck, even after I did what you suggested. It seems that
mediawiki doesn't even attempt to "talk" to ldap even when it's
directed to do so with the $wgUseLDAP = true;
I've just about given up on mediawiki and would rather use MAMBO, it
seems MUCH easier to use and a lot less "GEEKY". It seems that
Mediawiki lack in feature set as well, for example, no wysiwyg editor
and the performance is really bad.
Thanks for your effort non the less,
Lou

Hi Batti,
Regarding your LocalSettings.php, there seems to be more there than
you need
and I did not see $wgUseLDAP set. Also, you do not need to create the
LdapAuthenticationPlugin as the $wgUseLDAP flag will take care of
that. Try
the following for the LDAP settings (I'm assuming you don't need the
ADdomain):
#----- start ------
$wgUseLDAP = true;
$wgLDAPDomainNames = array(
"testLDAPdomain"
);
$wgLDAPServerNames = array(
"testLDAPdomain"=>"osxdev2.cecom.com"
);
$wgLDAPSearchStrings = array(
"testLDAPdomain"=>"uid=USER-NAME,cn=users,dc=cecom,dc=com"
);
$wgLDAPUseSSL = false; //Recommended!!
$wgLDAPUseLocal = false; //Allow the use of the local database as
well as the
LDAP database
$wgMinimalPasswordLength = 1; #If using mediawiki 1.5. Note: 1 is
the minimum,
feel free to go higher
$wgLDAPUpdateLDAP = false; //if true WikiDN and WikiPassword must
be set
//In Version 1.0 for writing to the directory
$wgLDAPWriterDN = "admin"; //Please use a user with limited access,
NOT your
directory manager
$wgLDAPWriterPassword = "admin_pw_here"; //You are able to use
clear text
passwords, but please try not to
//In Version 1.0 for search filter
$wgLDAPSearchAttributes = array(
"testLDAPdomain"=>"uid"
);
$wgLDAPBaseDNs = array(
"testLDAPdomain"=>"cn=users,dc=cecom,dc=com"
);
//In Version 1.0 for mailing temporary passwords to users
//(notice, this will store the temporary password in the local
directory
// if you cannot write LDAP passwords because writing is turned off,
// this probably won't help you much since users will not be able
to change
// their password)
$wgLDAPMailPassword = true;
//In Version 1.0 for allowing the retreival of user preferences
from LDAP
//Only pulls a small amount of info currently
$wgLDAPRetrievePrefs = true;
#----end----
Hope this helps.
