LDAP request from unix into Active Directory

Hi all,

I experienced a problem when making a LDAP search from Unix Netscape or Unix Mozilla adressbooks into my Active Directory LDAP db for email addresses.
I add my Domain Controller hostname and the LDAP root dir to search in.
For example:

Name: AD
LDAP server: gullvi
Search Root: ou=BDL,dc=bauta,dc=se

When I after this configuration opens up the addressbook and type in a value to search for I get "Failed to search 'AD' due to LDAp error 'Operations error' (0x1)"
I also choosed to always have to type in login+pasword info for authentication. I have single sign on in both environments.

I made the same configuration in MS outlook and there it works fine.
I can't see any error in the security log on my DC.

Does anyone know what might be wrong?
