Subject: LDAP authentication 

Hello

I had my authentication working (simple authentication) using Perl 5.6,
Net::LDAP, Convert::ASN1 0.16 on a Linux machine running Rehat 7.2, but in
coming back from vacation (a mere 3 days)...something in the mix has
changed. Authentication is no longer working and my Perl script has not
changed. I'm kind of at a loss as where to start researching the problem. To
make this even more interesting, we have a PHP script that authenticates!
(He does use SSL, where I don't)

Executing an ldapsearch from a command line returns error code 49 (Invalid
Credentials) and I have tried the ldappasswd command just to see if I could
get anything to work but that failed as well (Decoding Error -See Below)

Do I need to use Authen::SASL?

Any ideas greatly appreciated,
PHarstvedt
