+ Summary: LDAP binding fails
+ 
+ The LDAP binding in ldap.php is pretty naive.  It constructs a DN to bind with
+ by concatnating the uid attribute ('mail' in my case) with the username and the
+ basedn: "mail=mah at everybody.org,o=top" instead of
+ "uid=mah,ou=users,dc=everybody.org,o=top"
+ 
+ For small, single-domain stores, this probably works.  However, if you have
+ several  layers between the basedn and the dn, this fails miserably.
+ 
+ What I would expect: anonymous bind, search for object where the uid==username,
+ get the dn of that object, rebind as that dn with the user-supplied password.
