LDAP Access from this program

[Matrixinline]

Hi

I have a application to search an entry in the LDAP server.
I tried to run this application and it runs perfectly. But the issue
is I am nnot able to Login to the server and searhc for the entry
"CN=anip,DN=loc alhost,DN=com". It always give me error
ldap_search_ext _s error here.

Can you please let me know what exatly is the kind of error and
possible solution for this.
Here is the code for my application


#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "ldap.h"

//1. Domain Name ..2.3.
//2. Deprartment DP
//3. GROUP - Organization - Module-



/* Adjust these setting for your own LDAP server */
#define HOSTNAME 192.168.1.20
#define PORT_NUMBER LDAP_PORT
#define FIND_DN "CN=anip,DN=loc alhost,DN=com"
// OpenLDAP Project
int main( int argc, char **argv )
{
LDAP *ld;
LDAPMessage *result, *e;
BerElement *ber;
char *a;
char **vals;
int i, rc;

/* Get a handle to an LDAP connection. */
if ( (ld = ldap_init( HOSTNAME, PORT_NUMBER )) == NULL )
{
perror( "ldap_init" );
return( 1 );
}

/* Bind anonymously to the LDAP server. */
rc = ldap_simple_bin d_s( ld, null, null);
if ( rc != LDAP_SUCCESS )
{
fprintf(stderr, "ldap_simple_bi nd_s: %s\n",
ldap_err2string (rc));
return( 1 );
}

/* Search for the entry. */
if ( ( rc = ldap_search_ext _s( ld, FIND_DN, LDAP_SCOPE_BASE ,
"(objectclass=* )", NULL, 0, NULL,
NULL, LDAP_NO_LIMIT,
LDAP_NO_LIMIT, &result ) ) !=
LDAP_SUCCESS )
{
fprintf(stderr, "ldap_search_ex t_s: %s\n",
ldap_err2string (rc));
return( 1 );
}

/* Since we are doing a base search, there should be only
one matching entry. */
e = ldap_first_entr y( ld, result );
if ( e != NULL )
{
printf( "\nFound %s:\n\n", FIND_DN );

/* Iterate through each attribute in the entry. */
for ( a = ldap_first_attr ibute( ld, e, &ber );
a != NULL; a = ldap_next_attri bute( ld, e, ber ) )
{

/* For each attribute, print the attribute name and
values. */
if ((vals = ldap_get_values ( ld, e, a)) != NULL )
{
for ( i = 0; vals[i] != NULL; i++ )
{
printf( "%s: %s\n", a, vals[i] );
}
ldap_value_free ( vals );
}
ldap_memfree( a );
}
if ( ber != NULL )
{
ber_free( ber, 0 );
}
}
ldap_msgfree( result );
ldap_unbind( ld );
return( 0 );
}

Your question seems to be about how to use LDAP. This is offtopic
here - I would suggest a better place but I have no idea where.

Also you will need to explain (to the experts in which ever news group
or forum you move to) exactly at what point you get the error, and how
you've checked that nothing went wrong earlier.
