Ok, I propose two things :
- First case, we send user and passwd in HTTP headers. So it is
similar to basic authentication, except we have to use HTTP headers
values.
- Second case, we only send user in HTTP headers (for security
reasons), and we use the LDAP control 2.16.840.1.113730.3.4.18
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4370) that allows to run LDAP
operations with the identity of the connected user.

I think the first case is very simple to implement?

Clément.
