        $ldap = Net::LDAP->new( "ldap.example.com" );

        $pp = Net::LDAP::Control::PasswordPolicy->new;

        $mesg = $ldap->bind( "cn=Bob Smith,dc=example,dc=com",
                             password => "secret",
                             control => [ $pp ] );

        # Get password policy reponse
        my($resp)  = $mesg->control( LDAP_CONTROL_PASSWORDPOLICY );

        if (defined($resp)) {
          my $v = $resp->error;
          print "Password policy error $v\n" if defined $v;
          $v = $resp->time_before_expiration;
          print "Password expires in $v second(s)\n" if defined $v;
