Simple test failing

[Marc Lanctot]

Hello,

I'm trying to get pykota working with LDAP and running into problems 
connecting to the LDAP server.

So, using the code I found on the website I ran testldap.py (see 
attached), and the output I get is:

tsunami:~ # ./testldap.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "./testldap.py", line 18, in ?
     l.simple_bind(username, password)
   File "/usr/lib64/python2.3/site-packages/ldap/ldapobject.py", line 
169, in simple_bind
     return 
self._ldap_call(self._l.simple_bind,who,cred,serverctrls,clientctrls)
   File "/usr/lib64/python2.3/site-packages/ldap/ldapobject.py", line 
94, in _ldap_call
     result = func(*args,**kwargs)
ldap.ENCODING_ERROR: {'desc': 'Encoding error'}
tsunami:~ #

I'm using MD5 hashes for my passwords. Could this be why? How can I tell 
Python-LDAP to use MD5 hashing? I find in the docs what the error means, 
but I don't see anything about fixing it, nor not supporting those 
hashing mechanisms...

Thanks,
Marc
