NAME

Net::LDAPI - use LDAP over a UNIX domain socket


SYNOPSIS

 use Net::LDAPI;
 $ldapi = Net::LDAPI->new('/var/run/ldapi');
 # alternate way
 use Net::LDAP;
 $ldapi = Net::LDAP->new('ldapi://');


DESCRIPTION

Communicate using the LDAP protocol to a directory server using a UNIX domain socket. This mechanism is non-standard, UNIX-specific and not widely supported.

All the normal Net::LDAP methods can be used with a Net::LDAPI object; see the Net::LDAP manpage for details.


CONSTRUCTOR

new ( [SOCKPATH] )
Create a new connection. SOCKPATH can optionally be specified, to specify the location of the UNIX domain socket to connect to.

If SOCKPATH is not given, the environment variable LDAPI_SOCK is evaluated, and if that does not exist, the value /var/run/ldapi is used.

See new in the Net::LDAP manpage for further details.


SEE ALSO

the Net::LDAP manpage, the IO::Socket::UNIX manpage
