The Note You're Voting On

I want to point out that the line that reads 

"$ldaprdn  = 'uname';"  

is a bit confusing. You need to ensure that you use the entire rootdn. for instance. your code should look more like this...

<?php

// using ldap bind *** NOTE the uname *****
$ldaprdn  = 'cn=root,dc=testserver,dc=com';    // ldap rdn or dn
$ldappass = 'secret';  // associated password

// connect to ldap server
$ldapconn = ldap_connect("ldap.testserver.com")
   or die("Could not connect to LDAP server.");

if (ldap_set_option($ds, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3)) {
   echo "Using LDAPv3";
} else {
   echo "Failed to set protocol version to 3";
}

if ($ldapconn) {

   // binding to ldap server
   $ldapbind = ldap_bind($ldapconn, $ldaprdn, $ldappass);

   // verify binding
   if ($ldapbind) {
       echo "LDAP bind successful...";
   } else {
       echo "LDAP bind failed...";
   }

}

?>
