It tooks some time but I found the problem and a solution.

The problem was an empty "$filter" variable in the _read function of 
"turba/lib/Driver/Ldap.php".
The $filter variable is used in the @ldap_read function, which doesn't 
allow an empty filter.
http://php.net/manual/en/function.ldap-read.php

My solution is to use the 'objectclass' parameter in the backend 
configuration, then it works fine.

But I think it would be nice to set the $filter variable to 
"objectClass=*" instead of "null" when missing the objectclass params 
for the backend configuration.
Or document the objectclass parameter as mandetory for the ldap backend.
