Yeah, looking at the basic test cases for the library you can define a
general LDAP session and then invoke methods against it as you see fit.
For example,
ldap = Net::LDAP.new :host => my_hostname, :port => my_port, :auth =>
my_auth
Once that ldap object is defined then it can be accessed by various
methods that come with the net/ldap library. All in all I think LDAP in
general is rather straightforward, so working with one of these
libraries shouldn't force you to reinvent the wheel or anything.
