This code sample shows how to modify an object by replacing attributes of the object in PHP via LDAP. The ldap_mod_replace function can also be used to add new attributes or delete existing attributes. You can delete attributes by passing an empty array as the new value, for example, $entry["mail"] = array(). You can change a users password here as well by setting the userPassword attribute to a new value.

Sample Code

<?php

$server='localhost';
$admin='cn=admin,o=novell';
$passwd='novell';

$ds=ldap_connect($server);  // assuming the LDAP server is on this host

if ($ds) {
    // bind with appropriate dn to give update access
    $r=ldap_bind($ds, $admin, $passwd);
	if($r) echo "ldap_bind success<br>";
    // prepare data
    $entry["mail"] ="anothermail@novell.com";

    // add data to directory
    $r=ldap_mod_replace($ds, "cn=pjones,ou=users,o=novell", $entry);
	if($r) echo "ldap_add success<br>";
	
    ldap_close($ds);
} else {
    echo "Unable to connect to LDAP server"; 
}
?>
