User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.10) Gecko/20071213 Fedora/2.0.0.10-3.fc8 Firefox/2.0.0.10
Build Identifier: CVS

With Bind DN not empty (account login), the lookup in autocomplete failed. The server log contain:

slapd[48419]: conn=2 op=0 BIND dn="" method=128
slapd[48419]: conn=2 op=0 RESULT tag=97 err=0 text=

This is not happened in Address Book window.
If Bind DN set to blank, the lookup return results possibility match. Which is of course this only work with anonymous read.
I tried with any combination in prefs.js such "ldap_2.autoComplete.directoryServer" which point to my server. And use global directory. All no success.
I found many similar bug report.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Bind DN a value
2. Set ldap_2.autoComplete.directoryServer to this server
3. Set either combination in address lookup for global or account
4. Type in "To" field.

Actual Results:  
Server logs: BIND dn="" method=128

Expected Results:  
Server logs: BIND dn="cn=username,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" method=128

As this server set the slapd.conf with:

by anonymous  auth
by *          none

The lookup failed.

Confirming on Mac and Linux. I'll take a look at this.

Regression from bug 398059, fix is simple.

Sigh, consolidating these into one is on my list of things to do.

If this were the last bug holding back 3.0a2, I wouldn't stop 3.0a2 on it.  But it should definitely block tb3.

The fix

r+sr=dmose; this stuff is indeed a fine candidate for sharing with Components.utils.import().
