python ldap中的身份验证

Question

I have an ldap server who I connect to using `con = ldap.initialize(server)` and I bind to the server using `con.simple_bind_s(bind_dn, bind_password)`.

Now I want a authenticate a user using this ldap connection using his username and password which is different from the bind username and password. I searched a lot but didn't get any concrete answer.

Any help is appreciated.Thanks.

Answer 1

 con.simple_bind_s(POST[bind_dn], POST[bind_password])

Can be used for both admin and users, something like this:

 con.simple_bind_s(uid=1000,ou=people,o=org, password)
 con.simple_bind_s(cn=Directory Manager, password)

In general, you can find ready to use modules in python that allow the management for users session using the same priciple, ceck this: https://turbogears.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cookbook/ldap-auth.html
