Is the "control" keyword in LDIF files supported in perl-LDAP?

[Saritha C. <sar...@ad...>]

Hi,

Could you please tell me if the "control" keyword in LDIF files (RFC2849) is
supported
in perl-LDAP?  Or if I have used incorrect syntax in the LDIF entry below?

I am running perl-LDAP version 0.2401.

Using $ldif->read_entry() on a file containing the lines below returns the
error:
"LDAP entry is not valid".  If I remove the last 2 lines, the entry can be
read correctly.

dn: cn=Executive Lunch Room,ou=Executive,o=Deltawing,c=AU
changetype: modify
add: seeAlso
seeAlso: cn=Margaret Hunter,o=Deltawing,c=AU
control: 2.16.840.1.113730.3.4.18 true dn: cn=Andrew Sherman,
 ou=Deltawing InfoSystems,o=Deltawing,c=AU

I assume that I alternatively can use the Net::LDAP::Control::ProxyAuth
object on the
LDAP modify method to achieve this.  However I wanted to use the following
method instead:

- Read an entry from an LDIF file (possibly specifying a control as above)
into an
  LDAP entry object
- Call the "update" method on the LDAP entry object

Thanks very much for your help,
