!

I just checked the cygcheck output again and found this:
> cygcheck: track_down: could not find cygldap-2-3-0.dll

Not sure how I missed seeing that before...

cygcheck on my machine says the .dll belongs to 
libopenldap2_3_0-2.3.43-3; acursory check of setup.ini didn't turn up an 
obvious dependency listing. Is there a chance the dependency didn't get 
pulled in automatically like it should have?

Meanwhile, I'll tell my students to install libopenldap and see if that 
helps...

Thanks,
Ryan
