The ber_get_next routine requires a Sockbuf but I am not sure how to setup the Sockbuf so that it reads from the buffer rather then a socket. Can anyone tell me how to either set the Sockbuf such that ber_get_next will read from the buffer or parse the buffer using the ber* calls.

Given you have a buffer, you should use ber_scanf() or other decoding functions.
See the IETF LDAPext I-D detailing the LBER (ber) and other LDAP API routines.
