Authen::SASL::Perl

[Pat Monardo]

I was able to get SASL DIGEST-MD5 to work by fixing two bugs:
1. qop should not be in your list of quoted values.
2. qop needs to be One of the values listed in the challenge. I hacked to simply set 
it to 'auth'
and then it worked.

Re: Fwd: ldap search filter problem

[Jim Harle]

Sharib,
  The only thing I see wrong with your query is the use of 's in #2 and you may
not have meant that literally since it wouldn't work with | either. This is, a
filter of (&(sn=Jones)(givenname=Bob)) is correct, but
(&(Sn='Jones')(givenname='Bob')) is most likely wrong since you realy don't
want 's in your directory entries.  If you didn't mean the 's, then you have
done something else wrong, which can't be detected from your message.  Try
using a filter in another tool like ldapsearch, the copying that and pasting it
into your perl code.  The reverse might not work because Net::LDAP is more
forgiving about missing outer ()s than ldapsearch.

Net::LDAP sorting

[CZachary]

Hello,

Could anyone tell me if there is a way to perform a sorted of entries 
returned from a search in Net::LDAP?   If yes, how would I do this?


Thanks,
newbie

Yes. The Net::LDAP::Search class has a sorted() method that may do what you
want. It only does a crude lexical sort, so you'll need to do some more work
if you want to sort values in different languages and contexts correctly.

$res = $ldap->search(...);

die "Search failed", $res->error_name, "\n" if $res->code;
# sort by sn first, then modifyTimestamp.
my (@sorted) = $res->sorted('sn','modifyTimestamp');

Cheers,

Chris
