Subject: ruby net ldap bind issue

$ cat ldap2.rb

require 'rubygems'
require 'net/ldap'

 ldap = Net::LDAP.new :host => "10.1.5.7",
      :port => 1636,
      :auth => {
            :method => :simple_tls,
            :username => "uid=sysldapq,ou=People,dc=mnet,dc=example,dc=com",
            :password => "June2008"
      }

 filter = Net::LDAP::Filter.eq( "uid", "iqbala*" )
 treebase = "ou=People,dc=mnet,dc=example,dc=com"

 ldap.search( :base => treebase, :filter => filter ) do |entry|
   puts "DN: #{entry.dn}"
   entry.each do |attribute, values|
     puts "   #{attribute}:"
     values.each do |value|
       puts "      --->#{value}"
     end
   end
 end

 p ldap.get_operation_result

This is failing

$ ruby ldap2.rb
/var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/ruby-net-ldap-0.0.4/lib/net/ldap.rb:1097:in
`bind': invalid binding information (Net::LDAP::LdapError)
        from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/ruby-net-ldap-0.0.4/lib/net/ldap.rb:639:in
`search'
        from ldap2.rb:15



However this works!

$ ldapsearch -LLL -x -y .ldap-pass uid=username

$ cat .ldaprc
BINDDN  uid=sysldapq,ou=people,dc=mnet,dc=example,dc=com

$ cat /etc/ldap/ldap.conf
#

# See ldap.conf(5) for details

Any help would be appreciated

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
