Re: Testing sucessful bind

[Mark W. <mew...@un...>]

No that's not true (or at least shouldn't be, I haven't tested this in
Net::LDAP v .19 to make sure it wasn't broken). You should get error code
49.
How are you checking, this is how the code should look:
my $mesg = $ldap->bind($dn, password=>"password");

die ("failed to bind ",$mesg->code(),"\n") if $mesg->code();
