Hi all,
Researching the use of ns_ldap in OpenACS it seems that the version of
ns_ldap in wide use is http://www.sussdorff.de/resources/nsldap.tgz
which seems to have additional support for ldap bind (note I am not an
LDAP expert so forgive me if I'm using the wrong lingo).
The diff is pasted below. Should this be committed to the tree?
