Okay the script snippet you gave worked fine on my Debian Woody box, stable distro, which is Python 2.1.3, ldapobject v 1.18 (dated 2002/02/02), and openldap (rats the laptop battery just died but 2.0.23 I think - email if this is important).
Iterating over the search results to print them out was beyond my (non-existent) python skill, despite it being an example code snippet - I hate broken examples, but it does run without errors as far as it goes. And my handy python guru is probably asleep.
I remember why I hate languages that are sensitive to white space, I use to work in a language very similar to Python but with more brackets, I didn't like that one either.

If the web interface works it is probably just that something basic changed - like they renamed everything.
Curiously one of my friends is now working on a project at NHSIA to build something on top of the planned patient records system, I did ask what their plan was if the patient record system never happens - my cynicism wasn't appreciated.
Has anyone actually asked what proportion of patients want to have their records securely transferred, as a lot of security effort could be saved for those of us who aren't overly concerned over the privacy of the data (decent privacy would be nice, but being treated by someone who has my medical record is more important to me). Hell we could probably of had the system several decades ago ;-)
At least I'm not sure I'd want to be the first person to have my records spread on the Internet for all to see, but if I'm one of several million only people specifically interested are likely to be looking, unless you happen to share a name with a celebrity or some such.
What was it Scott McNealy say "privacy is dead, get over it" ? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org
