Hi,
I created a Perl script using perl-ldap to search for entries in my LDAP
server (version 2). When I bind to the server with the root DN and root
password, it doesn't seem to bind correctly. That is, the bind method
doesn't seem to authenticate my credentials. It seems as if the bind method
is binding anonymously even though I provided a bind DN and password. If I
search for objects that require root authentication to read, I get no
results back. If I search for objects that can be read with anonymous
binding, I get appropriate results back. I then tried to do the same
search, with the same ldap server, bind DN and password, with a command-line
LDAP search tool. This time I get results back for objects that need root
authentication. Am I missing something in my bind call? I'm sure that my
DN and password are correct as the command line search tool can authenticate
with them.
As anyone seen this problem? Any help or suggestion is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
