Hi,

I am trying to access an OpenLDAP 2 server with Net::LDAP. Everything fine
so far. But when I try to read schema information via the Net::LDAP::schema
method it fails. The reason is that the server does not answers operational
attributes such as "subschemaentry". Currently I fixed it by explicitly
requesting the operational attributes via attrs => ['+', '*'] in both
Net::LDAP::root_dse and Net::LDAP::schema.
Is there a better way to get the schema information out of the directory? I
could not find any hint in the perldocs.

Thank you,
Jan.

P.S. Is some conversion support for attribute values planned in the future,
e.g. automatically converting a attribute with syntax
'1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15' to UTF-8 etc?
