That is not always the case and allowing all users to query the AD free and
clear is not a good idea. AD holds much more information than just simple
user information. Since AD sits on the domain controller the user
interfacing with the LDAP needs to properly authenticate, which is not just
any AD user account.... at leas that is how have it set up.
