Re: ldap_getfilter

Ah.  That would explain why I was having a hard time finding it.  So, why
did such functionality get removed?  Is it inherently problematic?  Is
there some gorilla lurking in the closet if I were to borrow the old code
for a new project?  I would like to learn from whatever experiences caused
the disappearence of these tools, but, like I said, I can't find any
commentary in the archives or CVS comments.  Maybe I haven't stumbled
across the right search criteria yet.

Is there someone out there who could fill me in on some history or point
me at relevant archeological treasures or cross-reference information.
