I've made a number of attempts to try and configure apache to authenticate users against a Windows Active Directory without success. Does anyone have a working example?

Once you've setup your new directory as in OpenLdap try installing a garphical admin tool to make things easier.

Its a Java based tool and so installs on just about anything.

Install â jre-1_5_0_01-linux-i586-rpm.binâ and â ldapbrowserâ cd to the â ldapbrowserâ directory and run lbe.sh.

I'm still struggling with the ldap user login authentication so any info you have wou
