+.SH REBINDING
+.LP
+The
+.B ldap_set_rebind_proc
+function() sets the process to use for binding when an operation returns a
+referral. This function is used when an application needs to bind to another server
+in order to follow a referral or search continuation reference.
+.LP
+The function takes \fIld\fP, the \fIrebind\fP function, and the \fIparams\fP,
+the arbitrary data like state information which the client might need to properly rebind.
+The LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS option in the \fIld\fP must be set to ON for the libraries
+to use the rebind function. Use the
+.BR ldap_set_option
+function to set the value.
+.LP
+The rebind function has the following syntax.
+.B int rebind_function (LDAP *ld, const char *url,int request,ber_int_t   msgid);
+.LP
+The \fIld\fP parameter must be used by the application when binding to the
+referred server if the application wants the libraries to follow the referral.
+.LP
+The \fIurl\fP parameter points to the URL referral string received from the LDAP server.
