The patch itself is broken and needs s/NA/na/g to work. Either do that in your favourite editor or with perl -pi -e 's/NA/na/g' patch.1 or use the patched patch above. You apply it using patch(1)

[root@devel3 perldap-1.4]# patch -l -i patch.1
patching file typemap
patching file API.xs
[root@devel3 perldap-1.4]#

Thank you all for the help on this. I was able to patch, make and install this module. Note: I had to use the ldapsdk3.0E libraries instead of the 4.1E libraries, since I continued to get errors on the make. Again thank you.

This patch needs s/NA/na/g to work properly. Apply like this if you
don't know already.
