Sounds more like an X.500 or GDA question than LDAP, but my first
thought is can you do the same search for uid=blah using dish and
contacting your DSA directly? Are the uid.gdbm and cn.gdbm index files
permitted correctly? GDA decides what is and is not indexed based
solely on whether corresponding index files exist. -- Tim
