R: Backend integration of a CORBA application

[Calzuola Giovanni <Giovanni.Calzuola@sbsitalia.it>]

Telling the truth my problem is quite simple, but I have not much experience
in LDAP...
I have an application which has to resolve a wap session id into a telephone
number, and in order to perform such a conversion has to query the radius
server, and supposes that the radius server has a LDAPv3 interface.
I have written a perl script which performs the needed actions on the CORBA
layer.
It gets in input the sessionID and in output returns the Tel Number. 
I'd like to understand how can I configure my shell backend database and
modify the shell script in order to make my system respond to the query:

./ldapsearch -b clid_ip temp_ip=139.10.135.247 

(with no authentication)

getting the response:

139.10.135.247,CLID_IP
temp_ip=139.10.135.247
msisdn=14253981

thanks 

Best Regards
