ldap_read — Read an entry
$link_identifier
, string $base_dn
, string $filter
[, array $attributes
[, int $attrsonly
[, int $sizelimit
[, int $timelimit
[, int $deref
]]]]] )
Performs the search for a specified filter
on the
directory with the scope LDAP_SCOPE_BASE
. So it is
equivalent to reading an entry from the directory.
link_identifier
An LDAP link identifier, returned by ldap_connect() .
base_dn
The base DN for the directory.
filter
An empty filter is not allowed. If you want to retrieve absolutely all information for this entry, use a filter of objectClass=*. If you know which entry types are used on the directory server, you might use an appropriate filter such as objectClass=inetOrgPerson.
attributes
An array of the required attributes, e.g. array("mail", "sn", "cn"). Note that the "dn" is always returned irrespective of which attributes types are requested.
Using this parameter is much more efficient than the default action (which is to return all attributes and their associated values). The use of this parameter should therefore be considered good practice.
attrsonly
Should be set to 1 if only attribute types are wanted. If set to 0 both attributes types and attribute values are fetched which is the default behaviour.
sizelimit
Enables you to limit the count of entries fetched. Setting this to 0 means no limit.
Note:
This parameter can NOT override server-side preset sizelimit. You can set it lower though.
Some directory server hosts will be configured to return no more than a preset number of entries. If this occurs, the server will indicate that it has only returned a partial results set. This also occurs if you use this parameter to limit the count of fetched entries.
timelimit
Sets the number of seconds how long is spend on the search. Setting this to 0 means no limit.
Note:
This parameter can NOT override server-side preset timelimit. You can set it lower though.
deref
Specifies how aliases should be handled during the search. It can be one of the following:
LDAP_DEREF_NEVER
- (default) aliases are never
dereferenced.
LDAP_DEREF_SEARCHING
- aliases should be
dereferenced during the search but not when locating the base object
of the search.
LDAP_DEREF_FINDING
- aliases should be
dereferenced when locating the base object but not during the search.
LDAP_DEREF_ALWAYS
- aliases should be dereferenced
always.
Returns a search result identifier or FALSE
on error.

Unfortunately, userPasswords seem to be NOT retrievable with ldap_read();

The array in the attributes parameter needs to be an indexed array with numeric keys in ascending order. Like this:
Array
(
[0] => this
[1] => is
[2] => a
[3] => test
)
If there are missing keys in the array, then no result will be returned. This will not work:
Array
(
[0] => this
[1] => is
[3] => test
)

In the previous example the
$ds = ldap.myserver.com // your ldap server
should be
$ds = ldap_connect( "ldap.myserver.com" ) ; // your ldap server

Clarification of the ldap_read command syntax:
If you just want to pull certain attributes from an object and you already know it's dn, the ldap_read command can do this as illustrated below. It will be less overhead than ldap_search.
The string base_dn which is normally used to set the top context for a recursive ldap_search is used slightly differently with this command. It is used to specify the actual object with the full dn. (Hopefully this saves someone else a couple hours trying this command out.)
<?php
$ds = ldap.myserver.com // your ldap server
$dn = "cn=username,o=My Company, c=US"; //the object itself instead of the top search level as in ldap_search
$filter="(objectclass=*)"; // this command requires some filter
$justthese = array("ou", "sn", "givenname", "mail"); //the attributes to pull, which is much more efficient than pulling all attributes if you don't do this
$sr=ldap_read($ds, $dn, $filter, $justthese);
$entry = ldap_get_entries($ds, $sr);
echo $entry[0]["mail"][0] . "is the email address of the cn your requested";
echo $entry[0]["sn"][0] . "is the sn of the cn your requested";
ldap_close($ds);
?>
This prints out the specified users mail and surname for example.

This differs from ldap_search() by not recursing down to sub-entries. if you know the dn of the item you're looking for and only want info on that entry, use ldap_read() and pass it the full dn of the item you want.
It also seems that you'd alway want something like objectclass=* for the filter, since you're only searching on one entry.
