I saw the web equivalent of these docs and they seem pretty thin.

But the fact that you were able to run a query is a good sign. I guess
what I'd do is stick some obvious value in for the mapping, do a query,
then check the 389-ds access log to see what the filter looks like. That
may give us a clue about what to put in there. Note that the 389 log is
buffered by 30 seconds.
