I was not sure how to answer this as I do not know much about AD, so I
forwarded it to the perl-ldap mailing list perl-ldap@perl.org. One
response was
I'd wonder what octets were actually sent over the wire as the bind
password.
The character set and encoding used for simple passwords is considered a
"local matter", so maybe AD is expecting one encoding and his
script/Net::LDAP is sending something else?
Which I think is a good question.
Can you try your script with debug on. call $ldap->debug(15);
just before you call bind.
Can I also suggest you mail the list as there are probably more
AD people there that can help you and determine if it is a bug.
