[Catalyst] Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Store::LDAP problems

[Matija Grabnar]

Is anybody using Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Store::LDAP ?
I tried using it on my Debian stable install, and I've been unable to 
make it work:

a) instalation test fail because the ldap server ldap.openldap.org used 
in the tests is not responding.

b) When I attempt to set up exactly (copy/paste except for bind 
parameters) according to documentation, Catalyst crashes
because $c->authenticate is not defined.

c) When I replace $c->authenticate with c->login, I get a message saying 
default_store is not defined.

Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

Incidentaly:
I've got LDAP authentication working with Apache. Is there an 
authentication method that simply takes over the username and password 
that Apache got from the user?
