Allan,

I tried this, but the LDAP test just shows green that
everything is O.K.

Do you get additional output anywhere showing that it
pulled data from the ldap query?

You should put something to search for on the end of the line

eg 192.168.20.1 systemA # ldaplogin=ldapuser:passwd 
ldap:systemA:389/uid=someuser (from memory its /attr=whatever cant see 
our working one right now)

it will tell you how many results are returned and I think fail if 
nothing is returned.

Also if your ldap DOESNT allow anonymous bind then the fact that the 
login works I guess is a test in itself
