ldap over ssl using php

have windows code; need apache equivalent

[broniusm]

I am trying to implement ldap authentication over ssl and have hit one roadblock after another. Closest I've come is from is this Novell article on Secure LDAP using PHP [novell.com], but it's all written in Windows-speak. Could someone help by translating to Redhat 9/Apache, please?

I am drenched in server config, whereas I'd rather get back to php scripting!

thanks

It's these paths and commands that I need help locating:

# Make this folder structure:

C:\OpenLdap\sysconf\certs

# Move the RootCert.pem to C:\OpenLdap\sysconf\certs
# Open Notepad and copy this line into the file

TLS_CACERT c:\OpenLDAP\sysconf\certs\rootcert.pem

Save file as C:\OpenLdap\sysconf\ldap.conf
