Is it possible to make arbitrary ldap requests via mod_ldap from within a
handler script?

I have a number of handler scripts running in an environment which
successfully uses mod_authnz_ldap (and, hence, mod_ldap) for authentication
and authorisation against an external Active Directory server.  I'd like to
query the ldap server from these scripts but don't really want to make a
separate connection and bind for each, if I can avoid it.  Is it possible
to leverage the existing connection maintained by mod_ldap?

(I have spent a long time searching for information on this topic but all
my search results are overwhelmingly dominated by instructions for getting
authentication and authorisation running, which I've already done.)

I am running Apache/2.4.58 (Ubuntu) on Ubuntu 24.04.2.  Let me know if any
other information would be useful.

Yours,
