Here is the code in its entirety:

require 'rubygems'
require 'net/ldap'

ldap =3D Net::LDAP.new :host =3D> , :port =3D> 389, :auth =3D> { :method =
=3D> :simple,
:username =3D> "", :password =3D> "" }

address_only_filter =3D Net::LDAP::Filter.pres("mailForwardingAddress") &
~(Net::LDAP::Filter.eq("mailDeliveryOption", "forward"))

base =3D "ou=3DPeople,o=3Dcnm.edu,o=3Dcp"

ldap.search(:base =3D> base, :scope =3D> Net::LDAP::SearchScope_WholeSubtre=
e,
:filter =3D> address_only_filter, :attributes =3D> "*") do |entry|
    p entry.dn
    p entry.attrs
end


I've removed the credentials and the host IP intentionally.  Calling a
specific attribute on the object works just fine.  It just breaks when I tr=
y
to request all of them.  I figured it would be the easiest way to ensure I
only remove the attribute I'm interested in since not all records are sure
to have the same attributes.
