To connect to Microsoft Active Directory, you can use either a DSN or an ODBC connection string. Both of these methods use the odbc_connect function.

Connect to a DSN

To connect using a DSN:

$cnx = odbc_connect("CData ActiveDirectory Sys", "", "");

Provide a Driver Connection String

To connect using an ODBC connection string:

$cnx = odbc_connect("DRIVER={CData ODBC Driver for Microsoft Active Directory};User=MyUserName;Password=MyPassword;Server=MyServer;Port=MyPort;BaseDN=MyDN;", "", "");
