If I remember correctly, what you can do on a AD server depends on how you 
authenticate. Without SSL, most (read : all that are usefull) operations 
are read-only. The usercomments from the PHP ldap_connect() manual provide 
usefull comments.

See http://nl.php.net/manual/en/function.ldap-connect.php

You need the certs if you need to use SSL.
