checking modify executes correctly

[Edd D. <e.j...@de...>]

Hi,

I have a routine i use for changing users passwords, and i wanted to put in 
some code so i can check the password was successfully updated, so i 
checked the online docs, and came up with the following :

           my $result = $ldap->modify( $dn, replace => { 'userpassword' => 
$new_password });

i was expecting $result to contain either 1 or 0 depending on whether the 
operation was successful, but instead get 
"Net::LDAP::Modify=HASH(0x88be34c)" now i know what i'm doing wrong is 
probably so stupidly basic.. but i can;t figure out why it doesn;t work!!!!

Thanks
Edd
