well...I guess it means I have still a few things to learn before I become a back-perl guru... I suppose search(), add(), modify() and so probably all call a bind() function, but where is this function located ? SampleLDAP.pm is the only perl script provided in /servers/slapd/back-perl
I would note that back-perl, as-is, is missing numerous critical features, is entirely experimental, and you are likely better served finding an alternate solution to whatever problem you are trying to solve, or be willing to invest a significant amount of time fixing it up.
