LDAP for authentication

Hello,
     I am trying to configure mod_dav_svn so that it uses
mod_auth_ldap/mod_ldap for authentication.  Has anyone tried this
successfully?  I have the following in my config so far and I do get
prompted for login and password but I can never authenticate:

<Location /repo>
        DAV svn
        SVNParentPath /repo

        #Authentications
        <LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
                AuthType Basic
                AuthName "Subversion Repository"
                AuthLDAPURL     ldap://myldapserver:389?uid?sub?(objectClass=*)
                Require valid-user
        </LimitExcept>
</Location>

I am not sure if the problem is with the fact that the LDAP directory
is actually Active Directory LDAP or am I just using the wrong options
(?uid?sub).  Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Vijay Avarachen

No, but I did have success with the module at
http://www.muquit.com/muquit/software/mod_auth_ldap/mod_auth_ldap_cache.html
which does much the same.

Watch your apache log, usually in /var/log/httpd/access_log and
/var/log/httpd/error_log, it may tell you more.


For references, here is what I have to get my setup working. I am using
mod_ldap:

LoadModule dav_module           modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_svn_module       modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule ldap_module          modules/mod_ldap.so
<Location /svn>
	DAV svn
	SVNParentPath /home/svn
	SVNAutoversioning on

	<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
		SetHandler ldap-status
		Order deny,allow
		Allow from all
		AuthLDAPEnabled on
		AuthLDAPURL ldap://ldap.mydomain.com/dc=mydomain,dc=com
		AuthLDAPAuthoritative on
		require valid-user
		AuthType Basic
		AuthName "Subversion Read-only Repository"
	</LimitExcept>
</Location>
