Re: Net::LDAP::Filter question

[<ti...@uc...>]

No, the dn of the user is not available.  The dn in the cert is not the 
dn of user in the directory. In this case, I HAVE to use the cert in 
the filter, it is the only thing guaranteed to be unique that I have 
access to at this point.

Since the userceritificate entry is indexed in the directory, a search 
works just fine, as long as the 5 characters ('*','(',')','\', and 'nul') 
mentioned in RFC 2254 are converted beforehand, as detailed in 
the RFC.

I was just wondering if there was a method in Net::LDAP::Filter to 
do this, I take it the answer is no.  (Note, remember to convert the 
'\' first!)
