Ldap – Getting error when Integrating LDAP with WordPress

Ok. So the error was not defining /bin/bash as the loginShell attribute for the user on the LDAP server. Because of the permissions on the system and bash being used the default shell on the system it was having errors to try and create the default files required for the x11 system. Adding the /bin/bash loginShell atribute to all users fixed everything

you need to configure your wamp installation for ldap and/or kerberos authentication and those variables will be available to your php scripts.

For Apache 2.2 (most commonly found today): http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authnz_ldap.html

For Apache 2.4: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_authnz_ldap.html

If you require single sign on, then you will need to configure mod_kerberos as well. I have never used xampp or wamp so I have no idea if they have mod_kerberos.

If you want something that just works without having to learn how it works, then you can install IIS as you are running Windows anyway. A non home modern version of Windows desktop will allow to run it with some restrictions on the number of simultaneous connections, whereas a server version will not have that limitation.
