I don't have access to the machine from home so I will answer what I can. The local and LDAP accounts have different usernames. I know passwd is set to compat but Im not sure about the files/ldap order. I know it is connecting to the directory server because it resolves uids from it for file permissions. I am using the same client profile on other machines (Solaris) as well without any problems. I'm not sure about /etc/shells, but my login shell is bash. I am fairly sure (not 100%) that my co-worker that can use his LDAP account is also using bash.

net::ldap::extra::ad5.18
Net::LDAP::Extra::AD(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::LDAP::Extra::AD(3)
NAME
Net::LDAP::Extra::AD -- AD convenience methods
SYNOPSIS
use Net::LDAP::Extra qw(AD);
$ldap = Net::LDAP->new( ... );
...
if ($ldap->is_AD || $ldap->is_ADAM) {
$ldap->change_ADpassword($dn, $old_password, $new_password);
}
DESCRIPTION
Net::LDAP::Extra::AD tries to spare users the necessity to reinvent the wheel again and again in order to correctly encode password strings
so that they can be used in AD password change operations.
To do so, it provides the following methods:
METHODS
is_AD ( )
Tell if the LDAP server queried is an Active Directory Domain Controller.
As the check is done by querying the root DSE of the directory, it works without being bound to the directory.
is_ADAM ( )
Tell if the LDAP server queried is running AD LDS (Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services), previously known as ADAM (Active
Directoy Application Mode).
As the check is done by querying the root DSE of the directory, it works without being bound to the directory.
change_ADpassword ( DN, OLD_PASSWORD, NEW_PASSWORD )
Change the password of the account given by DN from its old value OLD_PASSWORD to the new value NEW_PASSWORD.
This method requires encrypted connections.
reset_ADpassword ( DN, NEW_PASSWORD, OPTIONS )
Reset the password of the account given by DN to the value given in NEW_PASSWORD. OPTIONS is a list of key/value pairs. The following
keys are recognized:
force_change
If TRUE, the affected user is required to change the password at next login.
For this method to work, the caller needs to be bound to AD with sufficient permissions, and the connection needs to be encrypted.
