Net::LDAP::Extra -- Load extra Net::LDAP methods
SYNOPSIS
use Net::LDAP::Extra qw(my_extn);
$ldap = Net::LDAP->new( ... );
$ldap->my_extn( ... );
DESCRIPTION
"Net::LDAP::Extra" allows extra methods to be added to Net::LDAP. Normally such methods would be added by sub-classing Net::LDAP, but this
proves to get messy as different people write different additions and others want to use multiple of these sub-classes. Users end up having
to create sub-classes of their own which inherit from all the extension sub-classes just so they can get all the features.
"Net::LDAP::Extra" allows methods to be added directly to all Net::LDAP objects. This can be done by creating a class
"Net::LDAP::Extra::name" which exports functions. A "use Net::LDAP::Extra qw(name)" will then make these functions available as a methods
on all "Net::LDAP" objects.
Care should be taken when choosing names for the functions to export to ensure that they do not clash with others.

Net::LDAP::Extra::eDirectory -- extensions for Novell eDirectory
SYNOPSIS
use Net::LDAP::Extra qw(eDirectory);
$ldap = Net::LDAP->new( ... );
...
if ($ldap->is_eDirectory)
my $mesg $ldap->list_replicas($server_dn);
print "Replicas on $server_dn
* " . join("
* ", $mesg->replicas) . "
"
if (!$mesg->code);
}
DESCRIPTION
Net::LDAP::Extra::eDirectory provides functions / LDAP extensions specific to Novell eDirectory.
To do so, it provides the following methods:
METHODS
is_eDirectory ( )
Tell if the LDAP server queried is Novell eDirectory server.
As the check is done by querying the root DSE of the directory, it works without being bound to the directory.
In contrast to other Net::LDAP methods this method returns TRUE / FALSE respectively undef on error.
list_replicas ( SERVER_DN, OPTIONS )
Query the replicas on the given server SERVER_DN.
On success, the resulting Net::LDAP::Message object supports the method "replicas" that returns the list of replicas on SERVER_DN.
get_replica_info ( SERVER_DN, REPLICA_DN, OPTIONS )
Query information of REPLICA_DN on SERVER_DN.
On success, the resulting Net::LDAP::Message object supports the method "replica_info" that returns a hash containing information on
REPLICA_DN.
trigger_backlinker ( OPTIONS )
Trigger the BackLinker process, which resolves external references to ensure they refer to real entries.
trigger_janitor ( OPTIONS )
Trigger the Janitor process, which checks connectivity to all servers in database.
trigger_limber ( OPTIONS )
Trigger the Limber process, which verifies the server name, internal ipx address and tree connectivity of all replicas.
trigger_skulker ( OPTIONS )
Trigger the Skulker process, which checks the synchronization status of every server in the replica ring.
trigger_schemasync ( OPTIONS )
Trigger SchemaSync.
trigger_partitionpurge ( OPTIONS )
Trigger PartitionPurge.
refresh_ldap_server ( OPTIONS )
Trigger refreshing the NLDAP service.
