All of the examples from the Active Directory Cookbook by O'Reilly are 
available in Perl online:

That should be more than enough to get anyone started using Perl for 
manipulating AD.

Use Win32::OLE, and ADSI. Almost all of the sample code you'll find on
MSDN is written in VBScript, but it translates very easily. Use ADSI for
manipulation, and ADO for searching.

If you want help with specific issues after having a go, ask us :)
