You could also do this by a search. Not sure how general usable your
code has to be.

Please read my e-mails more carefully since you probably misunderstood
my last message.

RFC 3829 is "Informational" and is currently not supported by
python-ldap. But this is what to use with FDS. Feel free to implement
support for it in python-ldap. As the maintainer of python-ldap I say:
Contributions welcome.

RFC 4532 is "Standards Track" and is supported by python-ldap thanks to
 the OpenLDAP LDAP C libs supporting it.

Ciao, Michael.
