OpenLDAP with HP4100MFP Printer

[Chris Hirsch <chris@ewa-denver.com>]

Hey all...I have a HP4100MFP Printer that supports LDAP. Now of course 
HP has no info on getting it to work with LDAP and as usual their 
support is lacking :-) So I'm turning to the people who actually have a 
clue in life.

I have never set up LDAP before so pardon me if this is obvious. I have 
successfully set up two users and from mozilla can see the ldap server 
for email names.

When the printer attempts to connect to my LDAP server I see this in my 
logs:

==> /var/log/ldap <==
Nov 25 09:58:01 bundy slapd[23728]: daemon: conn=305 fd=25 connection 
from IP=192.168.0.14:1040 (IP=0.0.0.0:389) accepted.
Nov 25 09:58:01 bundy slapd[24996]: conn=305 op=0 BIND dn="" method=128
Nov 25 09:58:01 bundy slapd[24996]: conn=305 op=0 RESULT tag=97 err=0 text=
Nov 25 09:58:01 bundy slapd[23733]: conn=305 op=1 SRCH base="" scope=2 
filter="(&(|(objectClass=person)(objectClass=organizationalPerson))(cn=*))"
Nov 25 09:58:01 bundy slapd[23733]: conn=305 op=1 RESULT tag=101 err=32 
text=
Nov 25 09:58:01 bundy slapd[24996]: conn=305 op=2 UNBIND
Nov 25 09:58:01 bundy slapd[24996]: conn=-1 fd=25 closed

Notice how dn=""? If I send an exact query to the LDAP server without 
the dn specification from the command line I actually get entries back. 
I see no way on the printer to specifiy this so is there someway I can 
either change this query using the ldapfilter.conf or do something else?


Thanks for the help!
Chris
