[Dovecot] "LDAP: No username in reply" error

[Jim Canon]

Hi All,

I am using the latest Dovecot stable with Fedora Core 4. I am trying to 
use it with LDAP, but I am getting the following error in my mail log 
when I attempt to check my mail:

Jun 18 09:12:24 relm dovecot-auth: LDAP: No username in reply
Jun 18 09:12:24 relm imap-login: Internal login failure: yaw at yaw.org 
[192.168.1.20]

Here is the slapd log:

I can supply more information if needed. I'm not actually sure what the 
error message means.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jim
