Hello Jonathan, I think if you want to manage LDAP from web2py as you were requesting you will need much more then ldap_auth.py contrib which as it says it mains purpose is to authenticate user of web2py against LDAP instance...
I guess you better look on the side of python-ldap ( http://www.python-ldap.org/index.html) Richard On Fri, Oct 30, 2015 at 2:06 PM, Anthony <[email protected]> wrote: > On Friday, October 30, 2015 at 1:47:05 PM UTC-4, Jonathan Renon wrote: >> >> it's not needed by web2py since you are using LDAP as the authentication >>> mechanism for any given user >> >> If I understand well, the authentication bind the user to my ldap server ? >> How can I access this established connection in my app ? how can I make a >> search request like >> *con*.search(basedn, searchScope, searchFilter, searchAttribute) >> > > The ldap_auth.py module includes a single function, which itself returns a > function.
