PHP LDAP Connection - php

Question

I was sent the following LDAP parameters, but am not sure how to establish a connection in PHP. I'm not sure which PHP function to use with each set of parameters. Here are the parameters I was given:
Server: ldaps://the_server.com:636
root DN: dc=the_info,dc=more_info,dc=com
User search base: ou=CompanyUsers
User search filter: sAMAccountName={0}
Group search base: OU=Security,OU=CompanyGroups
Group search filter: cn={0}
Group membership: Group membership attribute = memberOf
Display Name LDAP attribute: displayname
Email Address LDAP atribute: mail
If someone could provide a php script for me that would be great! This is my first time using LDAP and still do not understand all these parameters.

Following is the working code for linux base ldap.
It might be helpful to you.
<?php
$username = 'uid=amitkawasthi,ou=CompanyUsers,dc=the_info,dc=more_info,dc=com';
$password= 'test';
$ds=ldap_connect("the_server.com, 636");
echo $ds;
if ($ds) {
echo "Binding ...";
$r=ldap_bind($ds, $username, $password);
if ($r)
{
$sr=ldap_search($ds,"ou=CompanyUsers,dc=the_info,dc=more_info,dc=com", "uid=amitkawasthi");
$entry = ldap_first_entry($ds, $sr);
$attrs = array();
$attribute = ldap_first_attribute($ds,$entry,$identifier);
while ($attribute) {
$attrs[] = $attribute;
$attribute=ldap_next_attribute($ds,$entry,$identifier);
}
echo count($attrs) . " attributes held for this entry:<p>";
$ldapResults = ldap_get_entries($ds, $sr);
//for ($item = 0; $item < $ldapResults['count']; $item++) {
// for ($attribute = 0; $attribute < $ldapResults[$item]['count']; $attribute++) {
//echo $data = $ldapResults[$item][$attribute];
echo $data = $ldapResults[0][$attribute];
echo $data.": ".$ldapResults[0][$data][0]."<br>";
//}
///echo '<hr />';
echo "OK";
}
else
{
echo "Fail";
}
}
?>
