Re: perl LDAP and Active directory

Just to add to Bob's feedback. The structure is a bit different from a
typical ldap directory. Try something like:
cn=user,dc=domain,dc=com
or
ou=some OU,dc=domain,dc=com
Basically break the AD domain name into it's components with dc=. You
can see all of this with ADSI Edit, a valuable tool found on the windows
2000 CD under support. Install the Resource Kit..
