slow bind

[jacob m. <mar...@gm...>]

I have a small script using python-ldap in python-2.3 and it takes
about 3.5 seconds to perform a simple bind to our server.  I can
perform a complete search from the command line with ldapsearch in
about 0.02 sec.

I've appended the code & timing output.  Am I missing something here?

Thanks!
