Search Method returns 0 results

[Colin B. <bla...@bi...>]

Hi there

As per the subject I am attempting to perform searches using the 'search'
method as per the code below:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use Net::LDAP;
my $ldap;
my $mesg;
my $mbname = 'bill';
my $domain = 'projectshps.com';
my $ldapSearch;
my $ldapEntry;
$ldap = Net::LDAP->new('localhost');
$mesg = $ldap->bind( 'cn=Manager, dc=mydomain, dc=com', password =>
'mypassword');
$ldapSearch = $ldap->search([
        base => 'dc=mydomain,dc=com',
        filter => 'cn=*',
        attrs => [],
        scope => 'sub',
]);
print $ldapSearch->count . "\n";
foreach $ldapEntry ($ldapSearch->entries){
        print $ldapEntry->get('cn');
}
$mesg = $ldap->unbind();

This is producing one line of output, namely a 0 to indicate no results.

However when I type in the shell command:

    ldapsearch -D 'cn=Manager, dc=mydomain, dc=com' -w 'mypassword' -b
'dc=mydomain, dc=com' cn=*

this produces the pages of results I would expect.

I'm not sure what version of the package I have - it was there when I found
it.  I have had success with the other methods though, ie add, delete,
modify

Please help

Colin
