Morning all, I have made changes to that ldap script and when I tried to delete a user I got "subtree delete not supported". I want to delete everything associated with a user, is there a way that I can delete everything with just the user id ?

Cheers for any advice folks.

G :)

Net::LDAP[1] doesn't call die when it encounters an error. You need to
check for an error condition like they do in the example, something
like:

  $msg = $ldap->delete($dn);
  die $msg->error if $msg->code;
