No you are definitely helpful. My best guess is that the printer wants to make sure you have a valid user account in AD, before letting you can fire off an email from it.
Reading further on HP LDAP doc, at LDAP Authentication configuration page, it instructs to: "-Input cn into the "Match the name entered with the LDAP attribute of field. -Find the device user email address in the LDP trace. Copy the attribute defining the email address. (A screenshot of ldp query result is shown as: "1>mail:[EMAIL PROTECTED];" -Paste the attribute into the "Retrieve the device user's email address using attribute of" box -Find the device user display name in the LDP trace. Copy the attribute defining the display name. (A screenshot of ldp query result is shown as: "1>displayName:Phelps,K" -Paste the attribute into the "Retrieve the device and name using the attribute of" box. - Click Test LDAP Authentication. Input your username and password. And this is just the first part. I save you the authentication manager configuration part. Hopefully this will give you an idea of what the heck they want!

It seemed like you were trying to do a search for users who have "phelps,k" as the start of their displayname. I assume the printer wants a DN to do lookups. Any AD user should be able to bind. But I dont know what it does with the bind credentials. I've never configured a printer that needed to be given credentials to an LDAP directory. Does it look at who submitted the job and do a query for the persons email address and send them an email that its done? I dont know. You need to tell us how the LDAP credentials are going to be used by the printer. Otherwise it may appear that we are not helpful. Which, I well may be not ;-) Sorry M@ On 8/14/06, Alex Alborzfard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > Logon ID?
