[tpop3d-discuss] RE: LDAP Authentication

[Thai Tran]

Hello,
	I tired the filter '(mail=$(local_part)@$(domain))' with the results of No
such object.  I am aware at the moment I am searching for two attributes,
when I am sure that it is possible to search for only one during the search.
For example my tree is like so:

	o=mye-znet
	   dc=mye-znet.com,o=mye-znet
	      cn=t_tran99,dc=mye-znet.com,o=mye-znet
	   dc=sfm-racing.com,o=mye-znet
	      cn=test,dc=sfm-racing.com,o=mye-znet
	   dc=americanbureau.com,o=mye-znet
	      cn=webmaster,dc=americanbureau.com,o=mye-znet

and so on.
	If I can get it to bind to the correct 'dc=<whatever>,o=mye-znet first, and
then search for the uid that would be great.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Thai
