Details

The addressbook does not have any option to specify a bind dn for searching LDAP.Mozilla tries to bind anonymously before conducting search. Most LDAP servers now days require one to bind first before doing a search. In netscape 4.x in the preferences.js file one could specify parameter similar to this user_pref("ldap2_servers.MYLDAP.auth.dn","myid=uid,o=myorg"); and that will be used as DN to bind to the ldap server. In mozilla similar entry does not work. Nor could I find any option in the UI to specify such parameter.
