Quick summary of what the module does.
Perhaps a little code snippet.
use Net::LDAP::posixAccount;
#Initiates the module with a base DN of 'ou=users,dc=foo'.
my $foo = Net::LDAP::posixAccount->new({baseDN=>'ou=user,dc=foo'});
#creates a new entry with the minimum requirements
my $entry = $foo->create({name=>'vvelox', gid=>'404', uid=>'404'});
#add it using $ldap, a previously created Net::LDAP object
$entry->update($ldap);
