Drupal is up and running but how do I ...?

Installing PHPTemplate

I can't seem to get Drupal to "find" my phptemplate after I've extracted the folder as a subfolder in the themes/engines/ folder, thus making my engine folder look like this:

themes\engines\xtemplate
themes\engines\phptemplate

LDAP authentication against a w2k server domain controller

I need to authenticate drupal users within an intranet, against already existing acounts from a win2k domain controller. I am using the ldap_integration module but I know too little about Active Directory and LDAP. I don't understand the "dn=xxx,dc=yyy" syntax, so I don't know what to put into most configuration fields within the conf.php file of this module.

It particularly requires the following configuration values

// Edit this constant so that it indicates the LDAP attribute containing the login password
define(LDAP_PASSWORD_ATTRIBUTE, 'userpassword');

// Edit this constant so that it indicates the LDAP attribute containing the user's mail address
define(LDAP_EMAIL_ATTRIBUTE, 'homedirectory');

// Admin must define a user able to write users' attributes (to generate new passwords when they are lost)
define(LDAP_WRITER_USER_DN, 'cn=root,dc=username,dc=com');
define(LDAP_WRITER_USER_PASS, 'pwd');

// Admin must define a user able to read users' attributes (to read e-mail addresses when passwords are lost)
define(LDAP_READER_USER_DN, 'cn=root,dc=username,dc=com');
define(LDAP_READER_USER_PASS, 'pwd');

NTLM integration would also be good, but I am not using Windows nor IIS for drupal but Debian and Apache instead. Also, not all clients will be IE because I am trying to incorporate Opera and Firefox into our organization, and some members are already hooked up with these alternative browsers.

Add taxonomy titles

I am trying to add taxonomy titles to my module.
So that a list of taxonomy titles appear for each post.

How do I add taxonomy titles of a certain category to my module?

I have... (from snippet)

restrict ldap authentication to already existing users?

I am testing the ldap_integration module with my setup.

The authentication through LDAP works well...too, well. I would like to restrict the login to users who already exist in the user list. Is there an easy way to do this?

Category link in the galleries...

I am using the image module to create galleries. When you click on the thumpnail pictures to see the picture in a bigger format below the picture appears a link:"(category: the name of the gallery)".The link directs to a "taxonomy page" with the photos and not back to the gallery. I do not find this very useful and a bit confusing for the user. Does somebody know where I can change or disable this link in the code?

Navigation area disappears in one site area

Condition:
Site navigation disappears for Authenticated users for one Site section only. The site section is a link which displays articles based on taxonomy. Specifically taxonomy/term/14+15.

When a user is not logged in (anonymous) they see this (the correct condition)

When the use logs in (authenticated) they see this: The Taxonomy access is correct (headers at top read Guest and Registered content) but the navigation is missing (incorrect condition) that has recently appeared.

I'm using Taxonomy_Access to control which content appears based on Anonymous vs. Authenticated access. That configuration was working correctly; the sidebar navigation always appeared

Now, clearly, I must have changed something but what specifically I can't seem to isolate. I'm in the process of turning every module on/off to see where the conflict lies.

Turning off Just Taxonomy.Module, I see this which makes sense. It's the error page since the Learning Center link (taxonomy/term/14+15) clearly isn't being produced.

With Taxonomy.Module ON and Taxonomy_Access.module OFF, I see this: Navigation disappears.

This leads me to believe it's a problem with the Taxonomy.module itself.

I replaced the Taxonomy.Module with a clean one downloaded as part of the Drupal 4.6.4 install package. In repeating the tests noted above, the results are the same.
