<p>The <strong>ldap_simple_bind()</strong> function is used to authenticate a
distinguished name (DN) to a directory server.</p>
<p>For LDAP V2 servers, after a connection is made to an LDAP server by using
the <a href="ldap_open.htm">ldap_open()</a>, <a href="ldap_init.htm">
ldap_init()</a>, or <a href="ldap_ssl_init.htm">ldap_ssl_init()</a> APIs, an
LDAP bind API must be called before any other LDAP APIs can be called for that
connection. For LDAP V3 servers, the bind is optional.</p>
<p><strong>ldap_simple_bind()</strong> is an asynchronous request. The result
of the operation can be obtained by a subsequent call to <a href=
"ldap_result.htm">ldap_result()</a>.</p>
<br>
<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<p>No i5/OS authority is required. All authority checking is done by the LDAP
server.</p>
<br>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt><em>ld</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) Specifies the LDAP pointer returned by a previous call to <a href=
"ldap_init.htm">ldap_init()</a>, <a href="ldap_ssl_init.htm">
ldap_ssl_init()</a>, or <a href="ldap_open.htm">ldap_open()</a>.</dd>
<dt><em>dn</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) Specifies the Distinguished Name of the entry to bind as.</dd>
<dt><em>passwd</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) Specifies the password used in association with DN of the entry in
which to bind.</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Return Value</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>Message ID of the Operation Initiated</strong></dt>
<dd>if the request was successful. A subsequent call to <a href=
"ldap_result.htm">ldap_result()</a>, can be used to obtain the result.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong>-1</strong></dt>
<dd>if the request was not successful, setting the session error parameters in
the LDAP structure appropriately, which can be obtained by using <a href=
"ldap_get_lderrno.htm">ldap_get_lderrno()</a>.</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Error Conditions</h3>
<p>If <strong>ldap_simple_bind()</strong> is not successful, -1 will be
returned setting the session error (<em>ld_errno</em>) parameters in the LDAP
structure appropriately. See <a href="ldap_error_condt.htm">LDAP Client API
Error Conditions</a> for possible LDAP error code values. Use <a href=
"ldap_get_lderrno.htm">ldap_get_lderrno()</a> to obtain the error code <em>
ld_errno</em>.</p>
