Something I have noticed recently, when trying to
write into an AD using the microsoft tools is that
they are fussy on the "-\n" delimiter after each
attribute in a modify record.  This seems to have
to be there (for AD/ADAM) even if there is only one attribute change.

Naturally using the perl LDAP libraries to read and
update the directory works OK.  The only reason I
was using a Microsoft tool was for kerberos authentication
without trying to get GSSAPI working on Win32.

RFC2849 indicates that mod-spec should include the "-"
separator?

Net::LDAP::LDIF  v0.17 (line 538 on) does not write a "-\n" if there is
only one attribute value change. I think perhaps it should.

Does this make any sense?
