If you receive a "Strong(er) authentication required" error message when you try to delete an entry on OpenLDAP 2.1.6 set LDAP version 3 first:



$ds = ldap_connect($my_ldap_host);

ldap_set_option($ds, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3);

$r=@ldap_bind($ds,$bind_dn,$bind_pwd); 



Enjoy LDAP

Useful function to delete dn entries recursively



bool myldap_delete ( resource ds, string dn, bool recursive)



Returns TRUE on success, FALSE on failure

recursive is by default FALSE (same behaviour as ldap_delete)



function myldap_delete($ds,$dn,$recursive=false){

    if($recursive == false){

        return(ldap_delete($ds,$dn));

    }else{

        //searching for sub entries

        $sr=ldap_list($ds,$dn,"ObjectClass=*",array(""));

        $info = ldap_get_entries($ds, $sr);

        for($i=0;$i<$info['count'];$i++){

            //deleting recursively sub entries

            $result=myldap_delete($ds,$info[$i]['dn'],$recursive);

            if(!$result){

                //return result code, if delete fails

                return($result);

            }

        }

        return(ldap_delete($ds,$dn));

    }

}
