Perl-ldap multiple hosts in new

[Edward Brookhouse]

I am attempting to utilize Net::LDAP to authenticate to a directory, and
I have it working, but I now need to add redundancy.

The docs for Net::LDAP say "

HOST may also be a reference to an array of hosts, host-port pairs or
URIs to try. Each will be tried in order until a connection is made.
Only when all have failed will the result of undef be returned.
"


If I use:

my $LDAPServerAddress = "172.19.1.10";

my $ldap = Net::LDAP->new($LDAPServerAddress,port=>389,timeout=>5)
    || return "Can't connect to $LDAPServerAddress via LDAP";

This works fine.


Any attempt at making an array out of LDAPServerAddress or even
specifying a list or expanding the my $ldap with an or all fails.

Has anyone done this?

Thanks
