I'm new to OTRS and would like to have our customer list in OTRS pull data from our Active Directory setup.  I'm running OTRS 2.1 and have a Windows 2003 and Windows 2000 server running Active Directory.  When I do a search for customers I never get any results.  I have used the ldp.exe utility with Windows to verify that I can access the LDAP tree using the username/password below.

Any guidance or examples would help.  I'm definitely not a LDAP or OTRS expert :(

Here is what I have added to my Config.pm:

    # CustomerUser
    # (customer user ldap backend and settings)
    $Self->{CustomerUser} = {
        Name => 'LDAP FNB',
        Module => 'Kernel::System::CustomerUser::LDAP',
        Params => {
            # ldap host
            Host => '192.168.1.2',
            # ldap base dn
            BaseDN => 'DC=amaru,DC=local',
            # search scope (one|sub)
            SSCOPE => 'sub',
#            # The following is valid but would only be necessary if the
#            # anonymous user does NOT have permission to read from the LDAP tree
            UserDN => 'CN=otrs otrs,OU=Information Technology,OU=Full Access,OU=test-users,DC=amaru,DC=local',
            UserPw => 'tickets',
            # in case you want to add always one filter to each ldap query, use
            # this option. e. g. AlwaysFilter => '(mail=*)' or AlwaysFilter => '(objectclass=user)'
            AlwaysFilter => '',
            # if your frontend is e. g. iso-8859-1 and the charset of your
            # ldap server is utf-8, use this options (if not, ignore it)
#            SourceCharset => 'utf-8',
#            DestCharset => 'iso-8859-1',
            # Net::LDAP new params (if needed - for more info see perldoc Net::LDAP)
            Params => {
                port => 389,
                timeout => 120,
                async => 0,
                version => 3,
            },
        },
        # customer uniq id
        CustomerKey => 'uid',
        # customer #
        CustomerID => 'mail',
        CustomerUserListFields => ['cn', 'mail'],
        CustomerUserSearchFields => ['uid', 'cn', 'mail'],
        CustomerUserSearchPrefix => '',
        CustomerUserSearchSuffix => '*',
        CustomerUserSearchListLimit => 250,
        CustomerUserPostMasterSearchFields => ['mail'],
        CustomerUserNameFields => ['givenname', 'sn'],
        # show now own tickets in customer panel, CompanyTickets
        CustomerUserExcludePrimaryCustomerID => 0,
        # add a ldap filter for valid users (expert setting)
#       CustomerUserValidFilter => '(!(description=gesperrt))',
        # admin can't change customer preferences
        AdminSetPreferences => 0,
        Map => [
            # note: Login, Email and CustomerID needed!
            # var, frontend, storage, shown (1=always,2=lite), required, storage-type, http-link, readonly
            [ 'UserSalutation', 'Title',      'title',           1, 0, 'var', '', 0 ],
            [ 'UserFirstname',  'Firstname',  'givenname',       1, 1, 'var', '', 0 ],
            [ 'UserLastname',   'Lastname',   'sn',              1, 1, 'var', '', 0 ],
            [ 'UserLogin',      'Username',   'uid',             1, 1, 'var', '', 0 ],
            [ 'UserEmail',      'Email',      'mail',            1, 1, 'var', '', 0 ],
            [ 'UserCustomerID', 'CustomerID', 'mail',            0, 1, 'var', '', 0 ],
#            [ 'UserCustomerIDs', 'CustomerIDs', 'second_customer_ids', 1, 0, 'var', '', 0 ],
            [ 'UserPhone',      'Phone',      'telephonenumber', 1, 0, 'var', '', 0 ],
            [ 'UserAddress',    'Address',    'postaladdress',   1, 0, 'var', '', 0 ],
            [ 'UserComment',    'Comment',    'description',     1, 0, 'var', '', 0 ],
        ],
    };
