I have written a PHP Script for user login as we generally retrieve from database.Now I want to allow user to login through LDAP.
How can I go for the same?
<?php
session_start();
$host="localhost"; // Host name
$username="root"; // Mysql username
$password="mysql123"; // Mysql password
$db_name="helpcore"; // Database name
$tbl_name="users"; // Table name
// Connect to server and select databse.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");
// username and password sent from form
$myusername=$_POST['myusername'];
$mypassword=$_POST['mypassword'];
// To protect MySQL injection (more detail about MySQL injection)
$myusername = stripslashes($myusername);
$mypassword = stripslashes($mypassword);
$myusername = mysql_real_escape_string($myusername);
$mypassword = mysql_real_escape_string ($mypassword);
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name WHERE loginname='$myusername' and password='$mypassword'";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
// Mysql_num_row is counting table row
$count=mysql_num_rows($result);
// If result matched $myusername and $mypassword, table row must be 1 row
if($count==1){
// Register $myusername, $mypassword and redirect to file "login_success.php"
$_SESSION['myusername']=$myusername;
$_SESSION['mypassword']=$mypassword;
#session_register("myusername");
#session_register("mypassword");
header("location:login_success.php");
}
else {
echo "Wrong Username or Password";
//echo "You need to register to login.Go Back and click on "Register" button.";
}
?>
