I am wondering whether or not we want the MS CLDAP stuff in a separate dissector file, as it seems to contain minimal LDAP stuff (from looking at the code)
It's using standard connectionless LDAP (RFC 1798) with some sneaky piggybacking of stuff on top of it, so it uses the standard LDAP dissector with some special code to detect the special stuff they added. 


So, does anyone have a link to a concise description of the MS CLDAP stuff?
Well, there's the paper cited in the comments at the beginning of the LDAP dissector: 

	ftp://www6.software.ibm.com/software/developer/library/os-ltc-filesystems/Liguorifinal.pdf

(found by Googling for

	"Anthony Liguori" "Active Directory Domain Controller Location Service"

).
