PostgreSQL version: 8.2.0 - 1
Operating system:   windows
Description:        LDAP authentication problem
Details:

I've just installed postgres 8.2.0-1 for win32 and wanted to try out the
built-in LDAP support(with Openldap and Novell eDirectory).
The following LDAP authentication was added to "pg_hba.conf" :

Openldap:
 host     all         all        127.0.0.1/32     ldap
ldap://localhost/dc=dandoma,dc=cz;cn=;,dc=dandoma,dc=cz

However when trying to connect, it gave the error.
Look at the server log:
2006-12-31 19:34:59 LOG:  LDAP login failed for user
"cn=postgresdc=dandomadc=cz" on server "localhost": error code 34

2006-12-31 19:34:59 FATAL:  LDAP authentication failed for user "postgres"


eDirectory:
pg_hba.conf:
host     all         all         127.0.0.1/32   ldap
ldap://192.168.168.2/ou=win2000,o=plhb;cn=;,ou=win2000,o=plhb

Server log:
2006-12-29 13:50:18 LOG:  LDAP login failed for user
"cn=xxxou=win2000o=plhb" on server "192.168.168.2": error code 32
2006-12-29 13:50:18 FATAL:  LDAP authentication failed for user "xxx"

The problem seems to be in conversion of comma in suffix.
