Michael,

Thanks for the quick response, much appreciated. I guess I've been barking up 
the wrong tree then :)

If I try the alternative method however:

mod_attrs = [( ldap.MOD_REPLACE, 'unicodePwd', 'password' )]
dn = 'CN=Barney Rubble,OU=Users,DC=mydomain,dc=local'
r = l.modify_s(dn, mod_attrs)

I get:

{'info': '0000001F: SvcErr: DSID-031A0FC0, problem 5003 (WILL_NOT_PERFORM), 
data 0\n', 'desc': 'Server is unwilling to perform'}

I guess I'm still missing something :(

One thing which may be relevant is if I use l.start_tls_s() before 
simple_bind_s, the login fails although without start_tls_s Wireshark shows the 
connection to be encrypted.

Thanks again

Mike Peters
