Thanks for the reply.

As i explained in first post, there is nothing code present passing username or password, this script is called from openvpn, the configuration file has this line 

auth-user-pass-verify /etc/openvpn/new_ldap_authenticate.pl via-env

[download]

That's it, i am not sure how openvpn is passing username or password, that configuration file just says above line.
I did tried manually passing username and password inside script, and from STDIN ( removed new line using chomp), and also tried your line, still getting <code> Invalid credentials<code>

Just wanted to know how $ENV stuff is passed/called to/from Perl Script.
And then add for new OU.

Thanks
