We have code that will search an LDAP directory for users.
It's pretty involved and difficult to "unpick". I need to produce
some code that will allow us to simply determine if the connection is
up, but not do a search. At the moment I've got as far as
creating an InitialDirContext passing the environment in
a Hashtable. The only other thing that I want to do is to "ping"
the top object(which I know the name of) in the directory.
Any help available?
