sure, but he asked a question which you didn't answer
i was just wondering why?
i could have said "its only software too" but it would have served non purpose and
would have helped no-one
now it appears that you have written good ldap software
but you didn't say that! - all you said was - "go hack code"
your second answer gives much more information than your first one
so maybe my mail worked :-)
