title: PHP / LDAP on inexpensive hosting plan
body: <p>For my login system, I would like to check a username and password against a remote LDAP server using PHP.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone tell me if just checking a user against LDAP will work on an inexpensive hosting plan from a company such as GoDaddy, 1&amp;1, or Dreamhost?</p>
  
  <p>Ex:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$objConn = ldap_connect($strDomain);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I don't want to run an LDAP server, just simply use the LDAP functions of PHP to verify an account. </p>
