yeah - sorry...I've got a reasonable well functioning LDAP setup
providing for user accounts, samba acounts, mail delivery...

# ldapsearch -x '(automountMapName=*)' -b 'dc=tobyhouse,dc=com'
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <dc=tobyhouse,dc=com> with scope subtree
# filter: (automountMapName=*)
# requesting: ALL
#

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 1

of course automountMapName is not indexed but still...there aren't any
existing entries there.

# ldapsearch -x '(uid=craig)' gecos
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <> with scope subtree
# filter: (uid=craig)
# requesting: gecos
#

# craig, People, tobyhouse.com
dn: uid=craig,ou=People,dc=tobyhouse,dc=com
gecos: Craig White

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 2
# numEntries: 1

Craig
