[TYPO3-english] srijan_ldap_auth authentication not working

[J. Bakshi]

Hello list,

Have any one successfully configured srijan_ldap_auth ext ?  I have
installed it to authenticate fe_user authentication and followed the
manual but no success.  My ldap server is running well. for an example
let us search  uid=rbilly  from my ldap server based on classobject
inetOrgPerson

`````````````````````````````````````````````````````
ldapsearch -h 127.0.0.1 -b "ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" -x
"(&(objectclass=inetOrgPerson)(uid=rbilly))"  -D
"cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" -W
Enter LDAP Password:

# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <ou=people,dc=example,dc=com> with scope subtree
# filter: (&(objectclass=inetOrgPerson)(uid=rbilly))
# requesting: ALL
#

# test2, people, example.com
dn: cn=test2,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
cn: test2
sn: Billy
uid: rbilly
carLicense: HISCAR 123
homePhone: 555-111-2222
mail: billy at example.com
description: sales guy
ou: Sales
userPassword:: MTIzNDU2

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 2
# numEntries: 1

````````````````````````````````````

It is doing its job perfectly..

Now here is the ldap.txt file which I have modified to suit my ldap server

`````````````````````````````

        password = < replace it with ldap admin password >
        search {
           base = ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
           filter = (&(objectClass=inetOrgPerson))

But the authentication is not working.  Though from the  server log it
is seen that the authentication process communicationg with the ldap server.

NOTE HERE the  " nentries=0" . If I manually run the search filter as
above then this becomes as  "nentries=1"

any idea ?

Thanks
