Are you running your script with the '-w' flag and with 'use strict' and
'use Carp'? It may not make a difference here, but every little bit of
diagnostics helps :-)
The other thing to try is to use the normal Net::LDAP constructor directly.
Net::LDAPS::new is now just a compatibility method; the actual work goes on
in Net::LDAP::new instead. Maybe the compatibility code's busted.
$ldaps = Net::LDAP->new("ldaps://foo.example.com") or die;

I'm not really sure that's true, but I've never tried it on Windows. I don't
see any reason why IO::Socket::SSL and Net::SSLeay wouldn't work on Windows,
though I understand that Windows folk might not be able to easily build
binary modules, and since the ActiveState^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^HSophos perl
distro doesn't include them...
So it ought to only be harder on Windows, not impossible. But that's the way
it should be ;-))
Cheers,
