Use the symbolic names provided by the module.  Don't use string
literals.

| These docs:

| seem a bit off.

The docs are missing the module constants.  One way to see what is
available :
    $ python
    Python 2.3.3 (#2, Feb 24 2004, 09:29:20) 
    [GCC 3.3.3 (Debian)] on linux2
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import ldap
    >>> dir(ldap)

For the code shown above, use :
    import ldap
    [...]
    status,res =c.result(msg,1,5)
    if status == ldap.RES_BIND :
        print "result is BIND"
