marcos has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I have to write a cgi script that has to access a LDAP Server (specifically a Netscape LDAP Server). The script must perform some LDAP search and/or modify.
AFAIK there are two perl modules to interface with LDAP server: perl-ldap-0.19 and Net-LDAPapi-1.42. I played a little with perl-ldap-0.19, but before starting serious development I would like to here someone else experience. Did anyone here ever used these modules? Do you have suggestion?
TIA
marcos

Dont forget PerLDAP from mozilla.
I've used 'em all, and I've seen no appreciable difference between the three.
Net::LDAPapi built w/ OpenLDAP
libraries has offered the least resistance for me and my programming habits.
Netscape (iPlanet, whatever) also released some perl
modules to work with their C SDK, but I did not have
luck with those. | [reply] |

I'm currently working in a LDAP project using Net::Ldap, and it does it for me.
