Both have advantages (the first pair has fewer arguments,
the second avoids duplicate code). You might consider
combining them by having a _modify_generic_directory
that is called with apropriate arguments by wrapper subs
that provide the needed parameters. That way you aren't
duplicating the LDAP code in n different subs, but you reduce
the amount of parameters callers have to provide.
And if you're really feeling OOP-y, you might
even go as far as creating your own class that keeps all of
the things like the LDAP info and what not in the instance
rather than explicitly passing gobs of parameters.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
