    Hello:

    We have Sun One Directory Server up and running on a Solaris 9 host. Like to perform LDAP management tasks, such as create new user account ,change password, etc, from WEB-based interface. By following Sun bluebook LDAP in the Solaris Operating Environment (p377), I have done the following:
    1.Download Sun One Directory Server Resource Kit 5.2 and install it on /opt/mps/serverroot (same as Sun One Directory Server).
    2.Copy directory and files /usr/ds/v5.2/nsPerl5.006_01/lib/site/Mozilla to /usr/perl5/site_perl5/5.6.1
    3.Install PerLDAP from binary package perldap-solaris2-sparc.pkg
    4.Add /opt/mps/serverroot/lib/ldapcsdk/lib, /opt/mps/serverroot/lib, and /opt/mps/serverroot/lib/nss/lib to LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.

    Copy a test Perl script getentry.pl on page 380:
    #!/usr/bin/perl
    use Mozilla::LDAP::Conn;
    my $host = "localhost";
    my $port = 389;
    my $dn = "";
    my $passwd = "";
    my $base = "ou=pepole,dc=mydomain,dc=com";
    my $filter = "uid=$ARGV[0]";
    my $scope = "subtree";
    my $conn = new Mozilla::LDAP::Conn($host,$port,$dn,$passwd);
    die "Could not connect to LDAP $host" unless $conn
    my $entry = $conn->search($base, $scope, $filter);
    while($entry)
            {
                    $entry->printLDIF();
                    $entry = $conn->nextEntry;
            }
            print "\";
    $conn->close if $conn;

    To run this Perl script, I enter
    # perl getentry.pl
    Can't locate loadable object for module Mozilla::LDAP::API in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/perl5/5.6.1/lib/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/5.6.1/lib /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/perl5/site_perl /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.6.1 /usr/perl5/vendor_perl .) at /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Mozilla/LDAP/Utils.pm line 29
    Compilation failed in require at /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Mozilla/LDAP/Utils.pm line 29.
    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Mozilla/LDAP/Utils.pm line 29.
    Compilation failed in require at /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Mozilla/LDAP/Conn.pm line 32.
    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Mozilla/LDAP/Conn.pm line 32.
    Compilation failed in require at getentry.pl line 3.
    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at getentry.pl line 3.
    It obvious that I missed something while setting up PerLDAP.

    Background:
    O/S: Sun Solaris 9
    Directory Server: Sun One Directory Server V5.2
    Directory Server Root: /opt/mps/serverroot
    DSRK_Root: /opt/mps/serverroot

    Thanks in advance.
    Warren
