Hi,
Is there any documentation explaining how to write an LDAP client using the OpenLDAP library? If not, what is the best approach to find out what functions to use and what options should be set for a certain auth method?
I am writing a client but I am having issues with ldaps. Without documentation it is hard for me to tell if I am missing something or doing something wrong.
Thanks, Francesco

If you're looking for example code as opposed to the man pages that ship with the software, I would suggest looking the clients/tools code base as a starting point. You may also wish to look at other software that has implemented client side LDAP support, such as postfix, opendkim, etc.
