I am running Apache 2.0.55 with mod_perl 2.0.1 and Perl 5.8.1 on a Sun Solaris machine. We would like to do http authentication via our ldap server so we need to install mod_auth_ldap. The instrictions I found for installing mod_auth_ldap (http://www.muquit.com/muquit/software/mod_auth_ldap/mod_auth_ldap_apache2.html)
Apache2 has a builtin mod_auth_ldap module, so you don't need an external one: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_auth_ldap.html. If you used Apache1, you could also look at this module: http://nona.net/software/ldap/
say that before compiling and installing mod_auth_ldap, we need to complile and install LDAP libraries. The instructions for installing ldap libraries seem to force me to also install an ldap server. I do not want to install an ldap server since we already have a working ldap server. I want to use our existing ldap server to do httpd authentication on our web server. Is there a way to install only the ldap libraries?
Have you tried "./configure --disable-slapd" when making openldap? Which ldap server are you using to authenticate against? --tielman
