Well, it's been a very long time since I've used it, but the free version of the Softerra LDAP browser might help: http://www.ldapbrowser.com/info_softerra-ldap-browser.htm It's a read-only LDAP browser - the paid version is the Administrator, and does more. Apart from other capabilities provided by Softerra LDAP Browser, you may take advantage of the following functionality: advanced directory browsing comprehensive directory search customizable directory reports LDAP SQL queries data export (LDIF, DSML v.1, DSML v.2, MS Excel, CSV, Plain Text, HTML) customizable HTML views LDAP schema viewer SASL and SSL authentication and much more Don't know how much the full version costs, but it looks pretty interesting.
