Guys (and Gals)

I am far from an LDAP expert and we have not modified our Windows 2003 FFL
Schema at all.  I don't even have SP1 running as I am just still a little
gunshy about it.  But now me and my network engineer are under heavy
pressure to move our POP 3 email clients to a Server Centric Web based model
that will allow internet access to email.

So my network engineer and *nix expert is testing a *nix based program to do
that.  We are having trouble with it connecting to AD to authenticate Users
because it is popping errors that state "I can't find the Schema
extensions."  He is chasing that and I'm not really happy about modifying
the shema, if indeed we end up having to do that, but here is my question.

Will this app need an elevated credential (Domain or Enterprise Admin) to
simply LDAP query the AD from this *nix box to get usernames or passwords or
can it be done without that power?  I know you don't know the app, but the
question is a generic one relative to *nix boxes querying an AD.

Thanks in advance.

RH
