tinkering with ruby, activeldap and active directory, part 2

These are my notes from tonights reading after trying to get activeldap working with active directory today at work. Here is when they renamed ActiveLDAP to ActiveLdap, around 0.8.0, so if you’re looking at examples using the capital case, they’re fairly old and really should probably ignore them. v0.8.0 and later is also when Base.connect went away and we got Base.establish_connection, and dnattr became dn_attribute. The most sane examples live in the rdoc in active_ldap.rb. Still not 100% there though.
