Sorry for the late reply... With this information it's not really possible
to say what's going wrong. I have a few suggestions for you to try:
1. Have you played with any of the scripts in the example directory? Like
the qsearch.pl script?
2. Do you get any sort of errors, either in the client or on the server?
3. Have you looked at the log files on the LDAP server, to see what's being
done? Like, you can verify that the base-DN, search filter etc. are
correct, and also how many results the search should generate.
