I have no experience with W2K... ActiveDirectory doesn't really require
that you bind as administrator, does it?  Seems... extreme.  :-)

Well, peeking at the code (imp/ldap.search.php3 on line 240) it appears
that there's no support currently for supplying a bind dn and password.
If the W2K server is the only LDAP server you care about, you could hard
code it like this:

...
	$ds = ldap_connect($str_serv);

>>	$binddn = "cn=Administrator,cn=Users,dc=domain,dc=com";
>>	$bindpw = "password";
>>	if ($ds) $r = ldap_bind($ds, $binddn, $bindpw);
	else {
	   echo $lang->no_ldap_connection;
	   exit;
	}
...
