The bind failure will fall back to an anonymous bind, which will allow
you to continue to search and return attributes that an anonymous bind
can see.

I'm using ldaps and when I try to bind to a made up FqDN the scripts

Presently I'm binding with:

Net::LDAP methods return Net::LDAP::Message objects, not true/false

Whoops! ;-)
Does the bind fallback to anonymous mode if it fails? or does it not
bother authenticating until a process requriing more privs is needed?
The current operation I'm testing (search) can be done with anonymous
bind just fine.
