How to connect to Active Directory using LDAPJS

Question

I'm attempting to connect to an Active Directory domain controller to make some basic LDAP queries using JavaScript. I'm using the LDAPJS library and the built-in node tls module. I'm getting an error when attempting to run client.bind

The TLS connection seems to be working fine (it's coming back as authorized===true, though on the secureConnect event, I'm getting undefined.

The related code and output is below:

var tlsOptions = {
  host: "my.domain.controller.net",
  port: portNumber,
  ca: fs.readFileSync("C:\\myCA.pem"),
};

var server = tls.connect(tlsOptions, function () {
  console.log(
    "Server connected",
    server.authorized ? "and authorized" : "but UNAUTHORIZED"
  );

  if (server.authorized) {
    var client = ldap.createClient({
      url: "ldaps://domiancontroler",
      tlsOptions: tlsOptions,
    });

    console.log("Client created!")

    client.bind(userDN, userPW, function (err) {
     console.log("Client binding error:", err)
     process.exit()
    });

  }
});

server.setEncoding("utf8");
server.on("data", function (data) {
  console.log("server data callback: ", data);
});

server.on("secureConnect", function (data) {
  console.log("server secureConnect callback: ", data);
});

server.on("error", function (error) {
  console.log("server error callback", error);
});

Produces the following output:

> Server connected and authorized 
> Client created! 
> server secureConnect callback:  undefined 
> Client binding error: null
