Your base needs to change to the exact container that you want to search or you can change your base to something higher up in the tree that encompasses the container you want to search in.
Perhaps if you change your base to one level up, it might work for you: Try this: base=> "DC=bb" From: Andrew Meng [mailto:m...@hotmail.com] Sent: Monday, February 08, 2010 12:29 PM To: Sheahan, John; perl-ldap@perl.org Subject: RE: ldap search problem. John, It turns out to be a "user not found" error(error code 525). In ldp.exe, I need to specify the Windows domain name during the bind operation. So my follow-up question is how I specify the Windows domain in which that id was? I try: $ldap->bind("i...@mydomain<mailto:i...@mydomain>", password=>"password") or die 'Could not bind'; $ldap->bind("mydomain\id", password=>"password") or die 'Could not bind'; none is working.
