Have you tried www.freshmeat.net, www.sourceforge.com, and http://www.cpan.org for another application? There are a great many out there for editing LDAP trees. The previous post wanted to see your PERL code, which if you are having a problem, you might consider posting. Some of us that are familiar with both might possibly be able to help you out.
