LDAP does not work with python <2.6.6

[Legrandin]

Urlparse modules in python <2.6.6 do not parse correctly ldap URLs (even though http URLs are fine).
As a result, PyAuthenNTLM2 does not work when connecting to an ADS via LDAP.

An untested fix exists on the "urlparse_replacement" branch.

I can confirm this. I have

# python -V
Python 2.6

and master branch got me

PYNTLM: Error when retrieving Type 2 message from server
     (ldap://my.server.net/DC=stuff,DC=org) = Connection refused

After I installed urlparse_replacement branch it work.

Thanks a lot!

Kind of confused and stuck, appreciate your thoughts on this.

to use active directory, you have you have to use an ldap url !

[debarghaya]

ldap url where in the Apache config. Can you share an example.

[oetiker]

ldap://10.12.13.1/DC=nasa,DC=gov
