Also, somewhat apropos, I have a C::A::{Store,Credential}::ActiveDirectory that I based on the LDAP stuff. The LDAP modules didn't work for me because they want to bind anonymously and retrieve the crypted password, whereas AD just wants to authenticate with a bind.
So, having established this isn't true.

Could you perhaps instead post a message asking why your config of the
main LDAP store didn't work so we can figure out what configuration problem
you had and document it?

likely he is missing a 'binddn' and 'bindpw' config setting. The initial bind() 
will try
anonymously if those are not set. What I usually do for Active Directory is 
create a user
specifically for use with Net::LDAP (and by extension, C::A::Store::LDAP), and 
then do all
my initial binds with that user/pass.

'binddn' and 'bindpw' are fully documented; if the docs can be improved, please 
send a patch.

I seem to recall trying that, but it's been long enough that I don't recall the details of what went wrong.

The other reason I went off in my own direction is that I wanted to pull role information from AD groups, and I couldn't see any way of making that work with the stock ::LDAP modules. I will try to make some time to revisit this stuff soon.
