New Comment:
This is already documented: "When OpenLDAP 2.x.x is used,
ldap_connect() will always return a resource as it does not actually
connect but just initializes the connecting parameters. The actual
connect happens with the next calls to ldap_* funcs, usually with
ldap_bind()."

Not a bug in PHP, it is something for the docs though

Hello,
The problem doesn�t seems to be in PHP. It�s a problem with the LDAP
and SASL.
>From the bug-database:
When you use OpenLDAP 2 or other libraries that use the
new LDAP API, ldap_connect() will only create some state
on the client, the server is not contacted until you later
do an LDAP operation like search or bind. There are no DNS
lookups either, so ldap_connect("jlkdsfjsdk") will be
successful. This means that ldap_connect() will almost
always return true, while later operations might very well fail.
Another difference worth noting, is that for anonymous
access there is no more need for ldap_bind(). You just
do your search.
This thread can be closed.
Thanks and greetings
Alexander

No need to shout here and how do you expect us to reproduce the problem
without an LDAP server?

Cannot reproduce with my ldap servers, the specified
hostname for your ldap server cannot be resolved.
