RE: [cobalt-security] PHP security problem with Cobalt structure of file system

["Chris Weiss" <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Open LDAP is available for download at Cobalt:

ftp.cobalt.com
ftp.cobaltnet.com

A web search will find the latest code.

The man pages will explain the setup and you may need to put some entries in
hosts.allow and hosts.deny or the configuration file to protect the LDAP
ports.

The man pages for interfacing PHP to LDAP are here:

http://www.php.net/manual/ref.ldap.php

Later,
Chris

Hi Chris,

Thank you for this precious info... Do you have some links explaining this
specific configuration (at least some start points)...

Regards,

Fabian
