Did you obtain the LDAPDLL.ZIP file off of terminator.rs.itd.umich.edu in
the /x500/ldap/beta directory? I noticed yesterday that file was very old
and removed it. You should probably start with the LDAP 3.1 beta source
code in:
ftp://terminator.rs.itd.umich.edu/x500/ldap/beta/ldap.tar.Z
It does not contain a binary DLL; we plan to release one with the real
LDAP 3.1 release within the next month or so. You can obtain a recent
binary version with the waX.500 application via:
ftp://terminator.rs.itd.umich.edu/x500/wax500/waxr103.zip
Make sure you use the include files that are part of the LDAP 3.1 beta.
In fact, I am not 100% sure that will work -- you really should compile
the DLL yourself to be safe.

syslog should not be used in the LDAP libraries (libldap and liblber).
What file is using syslog?

None of the client applications included with LDAP have been ported to
DOS or Windows, except perhaps ud. Most of them are probably very
dependent on Unix and will be hard to port.
