Don=27t think so. However, utilization isn=27t the problem: LDAP is _very_
fast when using Novells own utilities (still using SSL), and the openssl
utilities are quite fast as well - that=27s why I=27m pretty sure it Perl
LDAP that=27s the problem.

I=27m playing around with it presently - trying to figure out how to
import/add/use the trusted CA certificate for the NDS/eDir system in
question as a first measure.
