Hi, I got similar problems when I tried to setup a xml-rpc server in  
ruby, since there no real examples howto create a server provided in its  
rdocs. I found out that there some provided in the package itself.

I found ruby-ldap examples here:

> **[CVS Info for project ruby-ldap](http://ruby-ldap.cvs.sourceforge.net/ruby-ldap/ruby-ldap/example/)**
>
> The world's largest development and download repository of Open Source code and applications

Also consider the rdoc to understand them.

Sincerely  
Florian

Dear Marco,

I found this:

[Ruby-ldap on Windows (built) - Ruby - Ruby-Forum](http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/62584),

but haven’t tried it myself.

Best regards,

Axel

Unless you have a specific need to use the compiled LDAP library, you  
might  
also try Net::LDAP. This package is pure Ruby and doesn’t require any  
compilation, so it’s simple to install on any platform.
