Hi Hallward, thanks for the answer.
I saw that you made a correction to the comment included in the source. But forgive me, I continue to not understand.
In the comment you wrote: <quote> # This demo module keeps an in-memory hash {"DN" => "LDIF entry", ...} </quote>
How could I populate manually (in the Perl code) those entries?
In this way? $this { "uid=pippo,dc=ciao,dc=it" => "objectClass: uidObject\nuid: pippo" }
I'm not able to extract my entry....
--------------------
I tried to use the add operation. slapd told me that I had to do a bind to do that operation:
<quote> [root@Fedora14 overlays]# ldapadd -x -h 127.0.0.1 -p 389 dn: uid=marco,dc=perl,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: uidObject uid: marco
adding new entry "uid=marco,dc=perl,dc=com" ldap_add: Strong(er) authentication required (8) additional info: modifications require authentication </quote>
So I need to do a bind. Is it correct that bind() function is not documented on "man slapd-perl" ? I tried to define a bind() function in the SampleLDAP.pm module and it went over that step.
Problem I was having was that the connection(?) was not released... I had my prompt hung waiting...
I started my slapd in debug mode and saw that "operation" seemed to be done...
It was my fault or I found another bug?
Thanks again! Marco

$this should be the return value from sub new. It's a blessed reference to a hash table, thus %{$this} (or just %$this) is the hash table.
Oops, I lost the final sentence:
%$this is a {dn: entry} hash, filled in by sub add & co.
