I am glad to hear that AdFind is running fine but I don’t randomly troubleshoot LDAP code for folks. Just too little time in the day.
Thanks, joe

Its not that I wouldn’t enjoy doing things like this, but unfortunately a good portion of every day has to be put into the job that pays for me to live and be able to buy my compilers and computers, etc. If I ever become independently wealthy, I am pretty confident I would look over and respond to emails like this for the enjoyment of it. But there are a lot of things I can’t do right now because I have a day job. :) Now if everyone in India donated $1 to my PayPal tip jar. I would be in position to do this and much much more as I would be spending massive hours coding for fun and putting out tools and information left and right. 🙂
