Ok, I'm still confused on the init.  From Scott's message I understand
that I should receive a pointer back on the init regardless.  But I have
noticed that changing
ld= ldap_init(xxx.xxx.x.xx:LDAP_PORT) to 
Ld= ldap_init(xxx.xxx.xx.x:LDAP_PORT)
Will give me a different error on the Bind.  I go from 'Invalid
credentials' to 'Can't contact Ldap Server'.


So is something else happening with the INIT besides creating a new copy
of the data structure?

Mike Smith,

I changed my ldap server name to something unintelligible, when I run by

this stretch of code (I converted everything to free format)
rc = ldap_simple_bind_s(ld:*null:*null);
if rc <> LDAP_SUCCESS; 
  Msg = %str(ldap_err2string(rc)); 
  dsply '' ' ' Msg; 
  return; 
endif; 

I get an rc of 81 which makes a msg of
Can't contact LDAP server

so, it's not the ldap_init you should be concerned about.  It's the 
ldap_simple_bind_s.

Ldap Query






I have a need to query a LDAP server from RPG.  I've been looking at a
couple of examples that Scott Klement posted, but I'm having some
problems. 
I really don't know much about LDAP, so I'm kinda fumbling around. 
Reading documentation, if I understand correctly, I should be able to
query a non-iseries LDAP 
Also, the LDAP_INIT should return a *NULL if request was not successful.

So, I started putting erroneous values as a Host name like

c                   eval      ld = ldap_init('NOGOOD': LDAP_PORT)

However I still get a pointer back.  Why?
It seems I can put any value as the first parm and still not return a
*NULL.

Is there anyway to verify that what is returned is correct?

Thanks
