Thanks. That works. I'm using OpenLDAP too.
However, I'm concerned about a few things.
(1) the LDAP documentation is wrong.
(2) in grokking the Authentication.pm code, I see that the LDAP modules are
still working by virtue of a lot of code labeled 'BACKWARDS COMPATABILITY' and
'old-style' and warnings about the interface eventually disappearing. These
include get_user() instead of the newer find_user() et al.
As I have the time (and who knows how long that will last...), I'd still like
to bring the LDAP plugins up to speed. I'll hack on it a bit today and see
where I get.
