Re: PerLDAP or Perl-LDAP ?

[Todd P. <tc...@mt...>]

If by PerLDAP you are referring to the package provided by Mozilla, I
would highly recommend Perl-LDAP.  I build web apps that "speak" LDAPS
all the time, I'm working on one now actually.  I used to use PerLDAP
exclusively, but find the Perl-LDAP pure Perl implementation far
superior (especially when dealing with controls :).  Both support SSL,
and the latest netscape shared library will allow TLS, but I still find
Perl-LDAP the best way to go for secure connections as well.

Just my $0.02.
