[TriLUG] OpenLDAP Question

[Matt Pusateri]

I'm still trying to figure out what the problem of the device is?  Can it not traverse the ldap tree and do sub searches?  I assume there is some interface for adding the ldap server config and some point in the ldap tree to bind to?  A little more info on how it's setup and what fields you can populate might help.
