using ASP to authenticate to iPlanet LDAP server

[AlanCh]

Hello,
I currently have an ASP application running on a Win2003 box, with just IIS. I currently have accounts on this box for authentication, but would like to make users authenticate to our LDAP server, which is iPlanet's Directory Server v.5.1 running on a Unix box.

Does anyone have an example page (in asp) that would authenticate users? Also, what would stop users from going directly to an existing asp page and bypassing this authentication? Would I have to do anything to the existing pages to make this work?

I'm not sure how this would work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I had to dig for this one, but this should give you an example. Sorry I couldn't provide one of my own code.

If this doesn't help, look through the Sun forums and/or documentation. It's interesting that iPlanet has changed several names.

mpermberton,

Thanks for your post. I've been sidetracked on another project, but I will try this out soon.

Hi mpemberton,
I have only recently checked out your link that you provided. I don't see any code pertaining to getting an ASP page on an IIS server to authenticate to an iPlanet LDAP.

Do you have any further information?

Thanks
