I'm trying to make an ldapi:/// connection using Net::LDAP, and it

Net::LDAP is going to default to connect to /var/run/ldapi if that is
not where your socket is
the you can either set $ENV{LDAPI_SOCK} or put the path in the uri
passed.
ldapi: uri's are strange that the path to the socket needs to be
encoded as the hostname, for
example the uri to specify "/var/run/ldapi" is ldapi://%26var%26run
%26ldapi/
Graham.
First, I verified that my ldapi connection works just fine using the
command line tools:
[zim...@freelancer tmp]$ ldapsearch -x -H ldapi:///
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <> (default) with scope subtree
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: ALL
#
# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success
# numResponses: 1
Now, I try and connect using Net::LDAP:
[zim...@freelancer tmp]$ /tmp/access.pl -e
connect: No such file or directory at /tmp/access.pl line 70, <DATA>
line 275.
Line 70 is:
my $ldap = Net::LDAP->new("ldapi:///") or die "$@";
Based on the documentation, I also tried
my $ldap = Net::LDAP->new("ldapi://") or die "$@";
But neither works. Is this a known issue with Net::LDAP?
