How get more detailed error information than the provided by ldap_err2string?



Hi,

I've the sample code bellow, and when i intentionally put the wrong credentials, i get from "ldap_err2string( rc ) the error message: 
"Invalid credentials".

But monitoring network traffic with wireshark, i can see that on the bindResponse packet that returns from the server, i also get a more detailed message. In my/this test case, 

"errorMessage: 80090308: LdapErr: DSID-0C0903AA, comment: AcceptSecurityContext error, data 525, v1772"

attached is also an image of the wireshark showing what i mean.

Question is, is there a way i could retrieve this more detailed message?

Thanks in advance for any help
Regards.

sample code:


if ( (ld = (LDAP *)ldap_init( pHostName, iPortNum )) == NULL ) { 
perror( "ldap_init failed. Reason?:" ); 
exit ( 1 ); 
}

if ( (rc=ldap_set_option( ld, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, &version)) != LDAP_SUCCESS ){
fprintf( stderr, "ldap_set_option(LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION): %s\n", ldap_err2string( rc ) );
exit( 1 );
}

if ( (rc=ldap_set_option(ld, LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS, LDAP_OPT_OFF)) != LDAP_SUCCESS){
fprintf( stderr, "ldap_set_option(LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS): %s\n", ldap_err2string( rc ));
exit( 1 );
}

rc = ldap_simple_bind_s( ld, "auth_dn", "auth_pw" ); 


if ( rc != LDAP_SUCCESS ) { 
fprintf( stderr, "ldap_simple_bind_s() Failed: %s [%d]\n", ldap_err2string(rc), rc);
ldap_unbind_s(ld); /* try unbind the failed connection anyway */
exit ( 1 ); 
}
