+esmith::util::ldap - wrappers for ldap commands
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+  use esmith::util::ldap;
+
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This is for common functions that would normally require a complete setting 
+to bind and acces localhost LDAP server in order to read, add or modify entries
+
+It is mostly a set of wrappers based on Net::LDAP.
+If you find yourself writing a ldap related function, consider putting it
+in here.
+
+
+=head2 Functions
+
+These may be pure Perl functions or they may well just be wrappers
+around Net::LDAP.
+
+Each can be imported on request.
