Hello All Just installed LDAP server (OpenLDAP) on Ubuntu with following base root dn settings: cn=admin,dc=nodomian
Added few organisation units to it using command line utility 'ldapadd' and few using ldap browser - 'phpldapadmin' Then I felt like playing with Perl to connect to LDAP server and wrote following script: $ldap_host = "localhost"; $admin = "admin"; $domain = "nodomain"; $dn = "cn=$admin,o=$domain"; $password = "mypassword"; $ldap = Net::LDAP->new($ldap_host) or die "Could not establish connection to LDAP server - $ldap_host \n"; $ldap->bind($dn,password=>$password) or die "Could not bind to LDAP serrver - $ldap_host \n"; If I set wrong '$ldap_host', it shouts saying - 'could not bind to LDAP server' and rightly so. *However even if I set wrong '$password' or wrong '$dn' scripts still executes successfully and doesn't shout...* Where am I going wrong...? Cheers, Parag
