Hello Graham,
I've been following this thread as I'm having the same problem with search.
I'm running NetBSD -current with perl 5.6.1.  We're also seeing the same
problem with
perl 5.8. on Debian Linux kernel 2.4.21.072103.  I've upgraded Net::LDAP
to 0.30,
but the problem still exists.  I added the warn function and i get:
'81' at ./nis2ldap line 150.

However my script works if I do

my $ldap = Net::LDAP->new($ldaphost,version => 2)

but fails if we use the default version => 3.


Does the server you connect to support LDAPv3 ?
I may be mistaken, but I beleive it does.  It's running on a debian 
linux box

ldap-master:openldap# apt-cache showpkg libldap2
Package: libldap2
Versions:
2.0.23-6.3(/var/lib/apt/lists/debian.nscl.msu.edu_debian_dists_stable_main_binary-i386_Packages)
(/var/lib/apt/lists/security.debian.org_dists_stable_updates_main_binary-i386_Packages)(/var/lib/dpkg/status)

If not then that is the problem :)
