NAME

SYNOPSIS
     use Net::LDAP;
     use Net::LDAP::Extension::WhoAmI;

     $ldap = Net::LDAP->new( "ldap.mydomain.eg" );

     $ldap->bind('cn=Joe User,cn=People,dc=example,dc=com",
                 password => 'secret');

     $mesg = $ldap->who_am_i();

     die "error: ", $mesg->code(), ": ", $mesg->error()  if ($mesg->code());

     print "you are bound with authzId ", $mesg->response(), "\n";

DESCRIPTION
    "Net::LDAP::Extension::WhoAmI" implements the "Who am I?" extended LDAPv3 operation as described
    in RFC 4532.
