[SOLVED] How to verify LDAP username and password via an authenticated connection?

How to verify LDAP username and password via an authenticated connection?

Currently, I have 1 user have the permission to bind OpenDJ server. Then I need to verify the username and password from the end user. How can I do that?

This is the way I create the LDAP connection and bind successfully:

LdapConnection connection = new LdapConnection("opendj.mydn.com.vn");
//Set session options
connection.SessionOptions.SecureSocketLayer = false;
connection.AuthType = AuthType.Basic;
connection.Bind(new NetworkCredential("myuser", "mypassword"));

After that, I need to use this connection to verify the "user1" and "password1".

How can I query this action?

This is the configuration of OpenDJ:

Host_LDAP=opendj.mydn.com.vn
dn_LDAP=ou\=People,dc\=mydn,dc\=com
#uid_LDAP=uid\=webservice,ou\=People,dc\=mydn,dc\=com
uid_LDAP=webservice
admin_LDAP_verify_attr=uid
admin_LDAP_verify_dn=ou\=People,dc\=mydn,dc\=com

Solution

You've already done it. If the bind succeeded, the username and password were correct.

EDIT Your 'IT guy' is seriously misinformed. According to the OpenDJ configuration documentation #6.1.5, there is no real 'bind' permission. Instead:

Bind

Because this is used to establish the user's identity and derived authorizations, ACI is irrelevant for this operation and is not checked. To prevent authentication, disable the account instead. For details see Section 11.2, "Managing Accounts Manually".
