thanks. i tried adding the "-P 2" (protocol ver 2) option but the still
recevie the following error message:
ldap_init( ldap.starnet.gov.sg, 0 )
ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server

here's the command that i executed:
ldapsearch -x -v -P 2 -b "dc=server1211,dc=com" -h "dc=ldap.server1211.com"
"cn=*"

any idea where else could be wrong?
