Re: problems with Net::LDAP 0.16 on solaris

[Graham B. <gb...@po...>]

The problem is that on Solaris recv will not always return the address
of the sender if the socket is connected. The fix for this is that
in Net::LDAP where is uses asn_recv it should have a defined check on the
result.

The CVS respository on sourceforge has this fix. There is also a patch
at http://download.sourceforge.net/perl-ldap
