Are the search functions for Net::LDAP and Net::LDAP::LDIF case sensitive?
No. LDAP searches are not case sensitive. The Directory remembers case, and returns entries as they were put into the Directory, but searches are not case sensitive.
That's not true. Directories support both case-insensitive and case-sensitive matching rules.
Most commonly used attributes have associated case-insensitive matching rules.
Yes, you are correct. I was contemplating amending my response after Christopher Bongaarts replied with the correct answer. I will do so in the future.
And yes, most commonly they're not case sensitive, which is why I originally replied saying that it's not case sensitive. Case sensitive searches are few and far between (ordinarily).
