Hello,

We were able to successfully allow authentication against our LDAP server to allow people to create accounts within Drupal.

But after the initial account login, the first name and last name do not populate to the Drupal profile page. Both values are empty in the db.

We are not using anonymous LDAP and are instead using a standard user account with "read" access to access the LDAP with SSL.

Do we need to setup some special privelages on the AD box for the standard user account to pull the first and last name?
I couldn't find any other posts that showed a solution.

We're running...
- Windows AD Server 2009
- LDAPs
- Drupal 5.17
- LDAP Integration 5.x-1.x-dev
- Ubuntu 8.04.2 virtual machine

Thanks so much for your help!

ldapdata module should be enabled and configured to map ldap attributes to drupal profile values.

To confirm,

I have the ldapdata module enabled and configured (version 5.x-1.x-dev) to map the following attributes to the Drupal profile values.

profile_firstname = givenName
profile_lastname = sn

Any specifics I need to work our LDAP sys admin on?
Anything within any of the php config files?

Did anyone figure this out? I'm facing the same issue as DburnsFCA (except using 6.x-1.0-beta2).

Set up the ldapdata module but fields not being populated.

Thanks.

** Update **
For anyone else looking into this, maybe you can learn from my silliness. I had set the permissions of the settings.php file to read only so my changes to the $cookie_domain and $base_url variables were not saving. Doh!
