Ruby JRuby

Hi ,

I am new to JRUBY.

I would like to connect with LDAP to check user status.

Can Someone help with code and steps to execute.

I have installed JRUBY and ran a sample program. Try to understanding
the
flow. As i am from JAVA background.

Sathya -

I have no experience with this, but I just googled ruby ldap and got
some hits. Ruby Toolbox was one of them; its a helpful site, with
information and ratings on gems. Here is a page that might help:

Theres one (net-ldap) that is the overwhelming favorite there.

Aside from that, if you already use a Java library for this, you could
always use thatand even if you dont already use a Java library for this,
it might be worth looking intoit might be better quality than the Ruby
gem (I dont know, Im just raising the possibility).

Sathya,
The gem that Keith referenced has its own mailing list, perhaps that
would be a better source for example code?

Gem: GitHub - ruby-ldap/ruby-net-ldap: Pure Ruby LDAP library
*List: *Redirecting to Google Groups
