在IdentityPool下使用PHP CGI的内置IIS AD身份验证

Question

I have a PHP website running as an App on IIS.

The app is using a specific Identity that runs all php-cgi.exe processes under NetworkService user that has access to the AD server.

There's also another .NET app in the IIS where it's using the same identity and can log into the AD using the class System.Web.Security.FormsAuthentication and uses Forms Authentication in the Authentication settings in IIS. I tried copying the settings over but to no avail.

The .NET code:

...
using System.Web.Security.Membership.ValidateUser;
...

public ActionResult Login(Login model, string route)
{
    if (Membership.ValidateUser(model.Username, model.Password)) {
        FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(model.Username);
        return Redirect(route);
    }

    return RedirectHome();
}

My code running on IIS with PHP CGI, impersonate is on on IIS level and php.ini level:

public function login()
{
    $ldapHost = 'ldap://spacemudd-ad';

    // PHP should use server's (iis) credentials when connecting. (impersonate)
    $connection = ldap_connect($ldapHost);

    // This always fails.
    //
    // "ldap_bind(): Unable to bind to server: Can't contact LDAP server"
    //
    // I believe due to the php-cgi.exe not sending the request
    // to the AD server through the IdentityPool's user (NetworkService)
    // even though in the TaskManager, the php-cgi.exe shows the owner is
    // NetworkService?
    //
    $ldapBind = ldap_bind($connection);

    // TODO: Search the AD directory for the user to be authenticated.
}

php.ini configuration:

fastcgi.impersonate = 1

ref. questions:

• Setting permission for PHP (or I_USER [I'm not sure here...]) to connect to iisweb.vbs

• Impersonate Domain User with Integrated Pipeline

• https://serverfault.com/questions/313100/iis-forms-authentication-php-asp-net-server-side-login (didn't attempt but looks promising -- will attempt tomorrow)

• PHP LDAP binding AD with the server's user account (doing ldap_bind() without setting credentials)

Update 24-11-2018: The sysadmin gave me these information:

config.md:

 <add name="ADConnectionString" connectionString="LDAP://spacelantern-central/DC=spacelantern,DC=com" />

    <membership defaultProvider="ADMembershipProvider">
      <providers>
        <clear />
        <add name="ADMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="ADConnectionString" attributeMapUsername="sAMAccountName" />
      </providers>
    </membership>

code.md:

if (Membership.ValidateUser("userid", "password"))
{
    // 
}

I suspect you have two problems. First, this:

ldap_set_option($connection, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, $ldapPort);

What is the value in $ldapPort? The name of that variable suggests that it contains the TCP port to connect to, but that is not what LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION is for.

LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION is for the LDAP version to use when communicating. For AD, you can set it to 3, since AD supports LDAPv3:

ldap_set_option($connection, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3);

Second, if you need to connect to a different port than the default (389), then you need to pass it in the call to ldap_connect:

$connection = @ldap_connect($ldapHost, $ldapPort);
