can't search on 'ou'?

[Luke K. <luk...@bl...>]

I am using the latest version of Net::LDAP, and I am having a problem--I
can't seem to successfully perform searches which look for an ou (i.e.,
filter is '(ou=Test Fun)' ).  If I try to, then the search fails with
error code 4.  However, if I take the exact same code and only change
the 'ou' to any other attribute I've tried (e.g., uid, cn, sn), then the
search works (although it doesn't usually return results).

I have beat my head against this for a while, and I can't seem to find
any solution.  Anyone have any ideas?

------------------

$ldap = Net::LDAP->new($defaults{'host'});

$ldap->bind(dn => $dn, password => $pass);

$cust = 'Test Company';
$search = $ldap->search(
	base => $defaults{'base'},
	scope => 'sub',
	filter => "(ou=$cust)",
);

if ($search->code)
{
	print $search->code, "\n", $search->error, "\n";
	exit(1);
}
