Then use the 2 query approach. For example:
<cfset UserSearchFailed = 0>
<!--- This filter will look in the objectclass for the user's ID. --->
<cfset filter = "(&(objectclass=person)(uid=" & attributes.Username & "))">
<!--- Query LDAP for the user's DN; used later to authenticate the user. --->
<cftry>
<cfldap action="query"
name="userSearch"
attributes="dn"
start="o=something"
scope="SUBTREE"
server="myLDAPServer"
port="389"
filter="#filter#">
<cfcatch type="Any">
<cfset UserSearchFailed = "true">
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
<!--- If the user search failed or returns 0 rows abort. --->
<cfif NOT userSearch.recordcount OR UserSearchFailed>
<cfset UserSearchFailed = "true">
<cfset errormsg = "UID for " & #attributes.Username# & " not found.">
</cfif>
<cfif userSearch.recordcount and not UserSearchFailed>
<!--- Pass user's DN & password to see if the user authenticates. --->
<cftry>
<cfldap action="QUERY"
name="auth"
attributes="givenname,surname,uid,userid,groupMembership,mail,dn"
start="o=something"
scope="SUBTREE"
server="myLDAPServer"
port="389"
filter="#filter#"
username="#userSearch.dn#"
password="#attributes.Password#">
<cfcatch type="Any">
<cfset UserSearchFailed = "true">
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
</cfif>
