That's an illegally encoded bind operation. I think Convert::ASN1's failing to set the constructed bit for the "[APPLICATION 0]" element. (The sixth byte should be 60, not 40.)

That's an LDAPv3 "notice of disconnection" message with a result code of operationsError. Servers send those messages if the client's sending them crud (like bad protocol), though there's actually a different result code for protocolError.
> Unexpected PDU, ignored
That's Net::LDAP not being able to cope with the notice of disconnection!

Yup, the server's probably closed the socket and your packets are bouncing around the LAN until TCP times out (5 minutes IIRC).

Looks like a Convert::ASN1 bug. This has a problem on perl 5.8 systems when the default locale is utf8, so I wonder if this is the same problem? I don't know how you'd test (or change!) that in ActiveState Perl + Windows.
