Why not just create a simple domain account? Active Directory allows each domain user to query the directory. Since this is the case, there is little need to pass around a user's authentication information.
The main exception is if you need to modify a domain account and that account is a domain admin or above. Only a domain admin can modify another domain admin.

The problem I having is not really a problem but more of a security issue. Currently during my development of the site I'm passing the user name and password in session variables (i know passwords in session variables is bad) so What I want to know is and I have not found any good docs or examples on is if I can bind once using cfldap and get back a token or something that I can then pass into and of my other cfldap queries, thus avoiding the need to pass passwords around in session variables. Thanks, - Charles ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
