Re: need back-perl sample slapd.conf

[Kervin Pierre <kpierre@fit.edu>]

Thanks,

(i) But how do I use it?  What bind do I use?

simple bind 'ldapsearch -x ...' doesn't seem to work.  In fact it 
reliablely crashes slapd.  SampleLDAP.pm does not have a 'sub bind' perl 
function.

How does SampleLDAP work if it doesn't have a 'bind' perl function?

(ii) Specifically the error is in servers/slapd/back-perl/bind.c , 
perl_back_bind() function,

'XPUSHs(sv_2mortal(newSVpv(dn->by_val, 0);'

is the offending line.  When the dn and cred are pushed to the perl 
interpreter's stack.  newSVpv() function seems to crash if any values 
are pushed are pushed on the stack, but newSViv() works without issue. 
If I move this line the the back-perl initialize function in 
servers/slapd/back-perl/init.c then it works fine.

any insight would be appreciated.
