These are the hooks I set up in my Horde 5 setup to provide default Full Name and email addresses, retrieved from LDAP. It's based on the one in hooks.php.dist, but I had some issues with that so it's a bit tweaked. Runs on my CentOS 6 system. Rather than specifying LDAP server details in the hook, it uses the system's ability to ldapsearch - which makes troubleshooting easier too, just strip out the command and make it work on the command line. It does mean that you have to have LDAP functional from your system for ldapsearch calls.
It uses awk to get the email address from the returned grep'ed value, and cut to remove "cn: " from the Full Name. You may need to tweak those bits so it does what you need on your system.
You will need:
First enable the prefs to look for the hooks in horde/config/prefs.local.php:
<?php $_prefs['from_addr']['hook'] = true; $_prefs['fullname']['hook'] = true;
Then you will need to create a horde/config/hooks.local.php:
<?php class Horde_Hooks { public function prefs_init($pref, $value, $username, $scope_ob) { switch ($pref) { case 'from_addr': if (is_null($username)) { return $value; } $searchBase = 'ou=users,dc=yourdomain,dc=lan'; $cmd = '/usr/bin/ldapsearch -ZZ -x -b ' . $searchBase . ' uid=' . escapeshellcmd($username) . ' mail | /bin/grep mail: | /usr/bin/awk \'{print $2}\''; // remember use -h for use another ldap host $mails = `$cmd`; $mail_array = explode("\n", $mails); $mail = $mail_array['0']; return empty($mail) ? '' : $mail; case 'fullname': if (is_null($username)) { return $value; } $searchBase = 'ou=users,dc=yourdomain,dc=lan'; $cmd = '/usr/bin/ldapsearch -ZZ -x -b ' . $searchBase . ' uid=' . escapeshellcmd($username) . ' cn | /bin/grep cn: | /usr/bin/cut -c5-'; // remember use -h for use another ldap host $cns = `$cmd`; $cn_array = explode("\n", $cns); $cn = $cn_array['0']; return empty($cn) ? $username : $cn; } } }
For troubleshooting I used the php file_put_contents function. The following is an extract of what I used as a guide to help you see what the variables are doing:
$searchBase = 'ou=users,dc=yourdomain,dc=lan'; file_put_contents('/var/www/horde/output.txt', 'Variable $searchBase is ' . $searchBase . PHP_EOL); $cmd = '/usr/bin/ldapsearch -ZZ -x -b ' . $searchBase . ' uid=' . escapeshellcmd($username) . ' | /bin/grep cn: | /usr/bin/awk \'{print $2}\''; file_put_contents('/var/www/horde/output.txt', 'Variable $cmd is ' . $cmd . PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND); $cns = `$cmd`; file_put_contents('/var/www/horde/output.txt', 'Variable $cns is ' . $cns . PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND); $cn_array = explode("\n", $cns); $cn = $cn_array['0'];
