Good day, I have a command-line PHP script that connects to an LDAP database and does some queries.
To increase security, I would like to not put the bind password into the program, and instead have the user type it in. But, I'd like to have this done so that the password is not echo'd to the screen. Lots of searching has shown that people have done something similar in C and Perl by closing the stdout channel. But, I haven't found anything similar in PHP (and I would need to reopen the channel again somehow afterwards anyway). Does anyone have a suggestion on how this might be accomplished? In the meantime I'll just put the password in the program, but, I'd like to learn how this could be done.
