Yash,
port and cert location is all correct, though maybe my understanding
of ldap->bind is not. I understand it to be an authentication
mechanism to gain rights into a DB.
I expected to bind with a fake user and have the script not work at
all, instead I can search like so:
$mesg = $ldaps->search ( # perform a search
base => "ou=service,ou=users,ou=admin,o=noah",
filter => "(&(cn=$check_CN))"
);
print $mesg ;
outputs:
Net::LDAP::Search=HASH(0x3e1b04)
