python-ldap is a wrapper module around a LDAP C-SDK. Get the latest
CVS snapshot of python-ldap (many memory leaks fixed):

http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=2072

Get a copy of OpenLDAP 1.2.11 (not 2.0.x!) from
http://www.openldap.org needed for building python-ldap.

Note: If you rely on some LDAPv3 features (Netscape Directory Server
4 is a LDAPv3 server) you might get lost since OpenLDAP 1.2.11 libs
are LDAPv2. Some things work, others not. Feel free to ask here if
you have any detailed questions. And you might wanna check out
http://www.web2ldap.de for a more complex programming example...

Ciao, Michael.
