NAME
       Net::LDAPS - use LDAP over an SSL connection

SYNOPSIS
	use Net::LDAPS;

	$ldaps = Net::LDAPS->new('myhost.example.com',
				 port => '10000',
				 verify => 'require',
				 capath => '/usr/local/cacerts/');

	# alternate way
	use Net::LDAP;

	$ldaps = Net::LDAP->new('ldaps://myhost.example.com:10000',
				verify => 'require',
				capath => '/usr/local/cacerts/');

DESCRIPTION
       Communicate using the LDAP protocol to a directory server using an encrypted (SSL) network connection. This mechanism is non-standard but
       widely supported; consider using LDAPv3 with the standard TLS extension if possible (many servers do not support it yet.) See "start_tls"
       in Net::LDAP.

       All the normal "Net::LDAP" methods can be used with a "Net::LDAPS" object; see Net::LDAP for details.

CONSTRUCTOR
       new ( HOST [, OPTIONS ] )
	   Create a new connection. HOST is the hostname to contact. OPTIONS is a number of key/value pairs. See "new" in Net::LDAP for details.

SEE ALSO
       Net::LDAP, IO::Socket::SSL

BUGS
       You cannot have more than one LDAPS connection at any one time, due to restrictions in the underlying Net::SSLeay code.
