Linux, Python 2.5.2, serverless binding LDAP?

[Kevin Cole]

Hi,

I recently asked our IT department how to gain access to an
addressbook.  After carefully explaining that I was on a Linux system
using Python, I got the reply:

"You should use our LDAP. With LDAP you can pull any data you want
from Active Directory. On our network, the serverless binding address
for our LDAP is ldap://dc=...,dc=...,dc=...,dc=..."

with the actual "..." filled in.

I don't know squat about LDAP, but installed the python-ldap deb, and
started glancing at the documentation on-line. I didn't see anything
obvious for working with the URI above.  Can I work w/ it?  If so, a
short example, please?

Thanx.
