Attached is a potential fix for this. Note that is also renames the
error method for fetching the password policy error to be called
pp_error. This is because there is already an error method in the
Control base class which has a different purpose.

Net::LDAP::Control::PasswordPolicy - LDAPv3 Password Policy control object
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Net::LDAP;
use Net::LDAP::Control::PasswordPolicy;
use Net::LDAP::Constant qw( LDAP_CONTROL_PASSWORDPOLICY );
$ldap = Net::LDAP->new( "ldap.example.com" );
$pp = Net::LDAP::Control::PasswordPolicy->new;
$mesg = $ldap->bind( "cn=Bob Smith,dc=example,dc=com",
password => "secret",
control => [ $pp ] );
# Get password policy reponse
my($resp) = $mesg->control( LDAP_CONTROL_PASSWORDPOLICY );
if (defined($resp)) {
my $v = $resp->pp_error;
print "Password policy error $v\n" if defined $v;
$v = $resp->time_before_expiration;
print "Password expires in $v second(s)\n" if defined $v;
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<Net::LDAP::Control::PasswordPolicy> provides an interface for the
creation and manipulation of objects that represent
C<PasswordPolicyRequest>s and C<PasswordPolicyResponse>s as described by
draft-behera-password-policy-09.
This control can be passed to most operations, including the bind.
=head1 CONSTRUCTOR ARGUMENTS
There are no constructor arguments other than those provided by
L<Net::LDAP::Control>.
=head1 METHODS
=over 4
=item time_before_expiration
If defined, this is an integer value holding the time left in seconds
before the account's password will expire.
=item grace_authentications_remaining
If defined, this is an integer value holding the number of
authentication requests allowed before the account is locked.
=item pp_error
If defined, this contains a more detailed error code for the account.
See L<Net::LDAP::Constant> for definitions of each.
Values can include:
=over 4
=item LDAP_PP_PASSWORD_EXPIRED
=item LDAP_PP_ACCOUNT_LOCKED
=item LDAP_PP_CHANGE_AFTER_RESET
=item LDAP_PP_PASSWORD_MOD_NOT_ALLOWED
=item LDAP_PP_MUST_SUPPLY_OLD_PASSWORD
=item LDAP_PP_INSUFFICIENT_PASSWORD_QUALITY

Hello,
I'm using the PP control to retrieve warning (time to expiration and
authn
remaining). But it seems the dedicated functions
time_before_expiration()
and grace_authentications_remaining() are not wroking.
I run this:
-----------------------
print "Time before expiration:".$resp->time_before_expiration."\n";
print "Time before
expiration:".$resp->{asn}->{warning}->{timeBeforeExpiration}."\n";
------------------------
And the result is:
------------------------
Time before expiration:
Time before expiration:1249
------------------------
So the control is well formed (I can check it with Data::Dumper),
but I
can read the value only by browing the HASH and with the dedicated
function.
I use perl-ldap 0.36 on Linux CentOS 5.2.
Any idea?
