How to authenticate nginx with ldap?

I follow this reference https://github.com/kvspb/nginx-auth-ldap/blob/master/README.md and try to integrate nginx and LDAP.

my nginx.conf setting:

user nginx;
worker_processes 4;

error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log warn;
pid /var/run/nginx.pid;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}

http {
ldap_server ldap_local {
url "ldap://localhost/cn=Manager,dc=xinhua?uid?sub?(objectClass=posixAccount)";
binddn "cn=Manager,dc=xinhua,dc=org";
binddn_passwd "xxxxxx";
require group "cn=config,ou=People,dc=xinhua,dc=org";
group_attribute "memberUid";
group_attribute_is_dn off;
require valid_user;
satisfy all;
}
include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;

log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
'$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
'"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';

access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log main;

sendfile on;
#tcp_nopush on;

keepalive_timeout 65;

#gzip on;
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
}


conf.d/default.conf

server {
listen 8000;
server_name localhost;

#charset koi8-r;
#access_log /var/log/nginx/host.access.log main;
auth_ldap "Forbidden";
auth_ldap_servers ldap_local;

location / {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.html index.htm;
}

error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
}
}


My question is how to authenticate the username and password which are in LDAP.

This is my first time to use LDAP.

Now, I don't know what is the username and password.

When I try the username and password in .htpasswd. It doesn't work.

.htpasswd
