Rails - Apr 2007 - LDAP Authentication

Hi all,
I''ve LDAP basic authentication working using NET::LDAP.

#####################################################
require ''ldap_auth''

#LDAP connection info
#
host= ''myldapserver'' #Your ldap server
dn = ''CN=users,DC=org,DC=com''
#Credentials of the user we are trying to authenticate
#
account_name = ''somename''
password  = ''somepass''

print "#{account_name} "
unless LDAP::Auth.authenticate("#{account_name}", password, dn, host)
do
|auth_obj|

    puts ''authenticated!''
    puts ''Group info:''
    groups = auth_obj.groups_for(account_name,
''sAMAccountName'',
''memberOf''){|group|puts group}
    puts groups.inspect
    puts
    puts ''Some attributes:''
    attributes = auth_obj.attributes_for(account_name,
''sAMAccountName'',
[''sn'', ''givenName'',
''mail'', ]){|name, value| puts "#{name} = #{value}"}
    puts attributes.inspect
   end
    puts ''authentication failed!  Bad account name and/or
password''
end
####################################################
o/p
> someone authenticated!
Group info:
[]

Some attributes:
{}
#######################

It is working and put ''authenticated'' message for valid user.
But I am
unable to get groupinfo and other attributes.
Can I use this authentication to retrieve data from MYSql database?
How to get groupinfo and user attributes?
Please help me out.

Thanks,
