Do these machines have applications that broadcast for LDAP servers?  Like,
do the sysadmins *know* what's running on their boxes?

You can ask for LDAP servers by doing a DNS lookup of (I think):

	_ldap._tcp.* SVR

If you have that in your DNS, it will respond with the IP addresses of
your servers, then it's on for one and all...
