oops, you're right, of course.
I used Exchange with AD for such a long time, that I couldn't imagine an
AD environment without Exchange.

In fact it is really easy to get information from AD via LDAP and even
LDAPS (if this port is open) *if* you get the authentication right. You
can't get anything using anonymous access, because by default the guest
account is locked. But if you authenticate using a valid dn with a valid
password everything should work smoothly.
