Re: Using Net::LDAP with AuthTicket

[Mark W. <mew...@un...>]

Nothing crosses my mind.

And unfortunately, no I haven't had a chance to do anything with the cookie
module.

BTW I'm leaving UNT to start a new job as a consultant with WebCT
(www.webct.com). I plan to keep on trucking with Net::LDAP, just don't know how
frequent I'll be :).

My new email is ma...@mj...
