Hi,

This is a perl-ldap spell with its dependency, Convert-ASN1. I've been successful in compiling both of these with current OpenLDAP 2.1.5 and then altering Bugzilla to use this for LDAP authentication instead of the two-year-old interface between Perl and LDAP that they seem to be using. Although IO-Socket-SSL might be installed, perl-ldap doesn't detect it, so LDAPS scheme (LDAP over SSL) doesn't work. I may be looking into this later. Be advised that in Net::LDAP->new(), you have to specify version => 3, to do any non-trivial things with OpenLDAP 2.1.x.

--Sergey.
