Hi there, I'm a Newbie to ldap and perl ldap.
I want to force a user to log in into my(perl) application using ldap authentication. I succeeded doing a search on all persons in our LDAP-Directory. My question is: How can I check the password the user gave to my application against the password stored in the LDAP-Directory? Concerning security issues: * (Off topic) Whats the best way of getting a password in a ENCODED way into my perl app? * Do I get an encoded or decoded password from LDAP? I would prefer if I sent my encoded passwords to LDAP, LDAP decodes the sent password and compares my password to the stored password, and just tells me, whether the sent password is valid ... Any help welcome ... Johannes
