Doug, I set it up like you mentioned and pointed it to ldap.bigfoot.com
since I know they are setup to accept annonymous access. It worked. Then I
tried my server. I got the error: CFLDAP No such object. Im guessing that
there is something wrong with the START attrib since I can search using
ws_ping_pro and can search using sn = lastname.

The only other thing I can think of is that the NT domain sees that a
validated user is using ws_ping_pro. I am going to try and load it on a PC
that is running 98 so I don't have to log into the network and give that a
shot.

any ideas???

Curt

IIRC, the 'object' in the error refers to an attribute.  Try a real
simple query that shuould be guaranteed to work such as

FILTER="sn=your last name" and START
="ou=ORGANIZATION_UNIT,o=ORGANIZATION"

If your LDAP is set up to listen on a port other than CFs default,
include the port attribute.  Better yet, include it anyways.

IE....
<CFLDAP
    ACTION="QUERY"
    NAME="lookup"
    ATTRIBUTES="cn,"
    SERVER="myservername"
    port="389"
    START="ou=ORGANIZATION_UNIT,o=ORGANIZATION"
    FILTER="sn=your last name">

cheers!

I have added my original email. I KNOW that the server I am connecting
too
is setup fine for annonymous access. This is an exchange server I am
connecting too. The link below outlines how to connect via CFLDAP to
an
exchange box's LDAP directories.  My main issue here is syntax I am
pretty
sure. Either that or I am missing something in the CF admin that needs
to be
setup.




ok, I have checked out an article on CFLDAP at
http://cfcomet.com/cfcomet/Exchange_Server/index.cfm?ArticleID=F6CAD37
7-4023
-4EB0-8C52340ED1DF4263 which is pretty straight forward. I can't seem
to get
this running. BTW searches done using IPSWITCH's LDAP tool are working
fine
so I know the server is setup to use annoymous access.

I know CF really well but am not very familiar with LDAP so Im sure my
mistake lies somewhere there. ideas??

My goal is to create a search for a that will show anyone who's name
is LIKE
#FORM.search# though when i use the following code I get the error

CFLDAP Can't connect to the LDAP server.

<CFLDAP
    ACTION="QUERY"
    ATTRIBUTES="cn,mail"
    SERVER="myservername"
    NAME="nihgal"
     scope="subtree"
    START="cn=COMMON_NAME,ou=ORGANIZATION_UNIT,o=ORGANIZATION"
     filter="(cn=*#FORM.search#*)">


Oh, I tried to take the search out and just get everything like so and
got
this error:

CFLDAP No such object

<CFLDAP
    ACTION="QUERY"
    ATTRIBUTES="cn,mail"
    SERVER="myservername"
    NAME="nihgal"
     scope="subtree"
    START="cn=COMMON_NAME,ou=ORGANIZATION_UNIT,o=ORGANIZATION"
     filter="objectClass=organizationalPerson">
thanks,
Curt

     Have you tried using a username and password combination? Maybe
CFLDAP uses something that requires authentication. As ws_ping only
does
searching. CFLDAP can be used modify entries.
