Hi Team,

We are working on migration of nsldap C sdk to OpenLDAP C sdk for our application client code.

We are using OpenLDAP 2.6.7.

As part of this migration activity, we are replacing one of the timeout values.

Without setting LDAP_OPT_NETWORK_TIMEOUT value, ldap bind is working fine and application functionality also working well with bind, search and other operations.

After setting LDAP_OPT_NETWORK_TIMEOUT value, ldap_simple_bind_s is failing with return code -1 (LDAP error -1-Unknown Error).

Here is the snippet.

struct timeval tv = { 20, 0 };

ldap_set_option(ld, LDAP_OPT_NETWORK_TIMEOUT, (void *) &tv);

lderr = ldap_simple_bind_s( ld, (char *)AdminDN, (char *)AdminPW);

Here we are getting bind failure with return code as -1. But without setting LDAP_OPT_NETWORK_TIMEOUT, the bind function is working well.

Could you help us to fix this issue? or let me know if I am missing anything here?

Thanks,

c.venugopal
