not sure since i have been using php4 for about a day now. i am using a php-based email front end which has the ability to query a ldap server for addresses (in this case its squirrelmail 1.0.1 quering a netscape directory 3.1 server) when setting up php4-ldap i get:
Setting up php4-ldap (4.0.3pl1-0potato1) ... You are installing LDAP support for php4, but it's not enabled in you /etc/php4/apache/php.ini. To enable it you need to add this line: extension=ldap.so Do you want me to add it now [y/N] ?y and it indeed adds it to /etc/php4/apache/php.ini however apache's module(s) seem to ignore it unless it is specified in /etc/php4/cgi/php.ini. i also need to make /usr/lib/php4/cgi a symlink pointing to /usr/lib/php4/apache (or modify php.ini to point to apache instead of cgi). I'm runnin apache and apache-ssl with these versions: ii apache 1.3.9-13.1 Versatile, high-performance HTTP server ii apache-common 1.3.9-13.1 Support files for all Apache webservers ii apache-ssl 1.3.9.13-2 Versatile, high-performance HTTP server with php4 stuff is: ii php4 4.0.3pl1-0pota A server-side, HTML-embedded scripting langu ii php4-cgi 4.0.3pl1-0pota A server-side, HTML-embedded scripting langu ii php4-dev 4.0.3pl1-0pota Files for PHP4 module development ii php4-imap 4.0.3pl1-0pota IMAP module for php4 ii php4-ldap 4.0.3pl1-0pota LDAP module for php4 it works fine after i do the changes i am just curious what the /etc/php4/cgi directory is used for if /etc/php4/apache is what apache seems to be using ? just seems kinda odd ..... tia nate
