I meet a problem while using a ldap client based on openldap-2.0.27.> [..]
I wonder if there are approaches to set timeout for the ldap_simple_bind_s() calling. I have tried with ldap_set_option() to set LDAP_OPT_TIMEOUT and LDAP_OPT_NETWORK_TIMEOUT, but it seems not taking effect.
Maybe you should try with a recent version?
Ciao, Michael.
