Thank you Stacy.  But I still seem to be having issues.

As I mentioned before, we have three containers I need to search.
 Previously, setting ldap.object_context & ldap.search_context both to
ou=STAFF,o=CARTHAGE allowed me to properly authenticate users from the STAFF
container.

However, looking at your examples below:

ldap.object_context = cn=Users,dc=example,dc=com

ldap.search_context = dc=example,dc=com

trying to set ldap.object_context & ldap-search_context to something
like ou=STAFF,ou=STUDENTS,ou=FACULTY,o=CARTHAGE doesn't seem to work.

Am I approaching this correctly?  Or should my syntax be different?

Thanks!
