I'm not sure that I'm going to be all that helpful here but...

actually means that 1 - You did successfully bind to LDAP and 2 - that LDAP gave you all the records that matched your filter.

since you gave us, "dn: CN=Charles Richards,O=MyDomain"...

ldapsearch -x 'cn=Charles Richards'

would actually return that same record 

The tips/info that I would give you is buy the book...LDAP System Administration by Gerald Carter because that simplifies the whole LDAP/System authentication thing.
