Hello Graham,
I do not understand Net::LDAP::Entry.
Assuming that a ldap connection is set up:
$ldap = Net::LDAP->new($dc) or die "Connection failed!", $@;
$rc = $ldap->bind( $ldapAdmin, password => $pwd);
die $rc->error if $rc->code;
I read the example code of Net::LDAP::Entry but I do not understand what
it does.
01. use Net::LDAP::Entry;
02. $entry = Net::LDAP::Entry->new;
03. $entry->add (
04. attr1 => 'value1',
05. attr2 => [ qw(value1 value2) ]
06. );
07.
08. $entry->update ( $ldap ); # update directory server
As far as I understand the code:
02: create new ldap-entry object
03: populate object data structure with 2 attributes.
08: but here: what will be updated on the directory server?
There is no DN specified? It looks like "nirwana code".
How can $entry be directly bound to a user object like
$dn = "CN=x99,OU=Test,OU=OrgUsers,OU=DepartementX,DC=zhwin,DC=ch";
without using $ldap->search?
I just want to use: $entry->add(), $entry->change(),
$entry->get_value(), etc.
Thank you very much for your advice.
Kind regards,
Uri Liebeskind
