Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, I have a couple of LDAP Servers, and would like to monitor them by using the following command.

./ldapsearch -h hostname -p port -b "cn=monitor" cn=monitor currentconnections

I want to do it from my workstation. What is the best way to accomplish this. Thanks, Julie

    You should take a look at Net::LDAP it will allow you carry out reads easily and check the result. This could then be incorporated into an automated check
