Help with LDAP

[Guest]

I am using <cfldap> in several applications to automatically authenticate Windows users and log them in with their respective roles.

I have been using my own person network username/password in the <cfldap username="" password=""> attributes to authorize the LDAP query to Active Directory, however I can no longer use either my own or another individual's personal login information to make the connection.

In .NET, it is possible to run LDAP queries against Active directory using the local machine (I.E. webserver) as the "credentials", and not have to pass in a username and password. The local machine is an AD object, so it makes sense that it should be allowed to run LDAP queries

I have searched far and wide for a solution to this in Coldfusion, and haven't come across anybody and mentioning the same problem.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

For our LDAP needs, we just created an Active Directory account
specifically for just this purpose and used these conditionals for all
LDAP activity done by our ColdFusion applications.
