Hi David,
thanks for this piece of code :)
I guess I found a little copy/paste error.
It's only the logging for verbose mode.
line 655: ldapexample_verbose(&config, "ldap_search_ext_s()\n");
It should be "ldap_search_ext()\n" right?

Regards
Lars

Hi David,

In lines 715 and 722, when freeing memory allocated by ldap library, use "ldap_msgfree(res)" instead of "ldap_memfree(res)". The last one is not deallocating all ldap allocated stuff, causing a leak (not serious unless a continuos loop is used to send async msgs)

BR,
Jorge.
