I would like to write a simple ldap client in ANSI C programming language, to perform some interactions with slapd, things very simple, like howto insert an attribute to a given entry or even how to remove it from the ldap database.

May some one here provide any tips on documentation teaching howto to program for ldap ?

Thanks a lot for your time and cooperation.

Hello,

I’m probably going to date myself with this reply, but Mark Wilcox’s “Implementing LDAP” is still in print.

As I recall, lots of useful examples to get you started. There are probably online resources but I’m decades from any useful C coding experience.
