I have written a C ldap client to interact with a MS Active

Directory in Win Server 2003.

When I search for the base DNs from scope LDAP_SCOPE_BASE I get all the results perfectly.But when I try to search for an existing user anonymously( I set all the permissions in the ACLS ) it hangs indefinitely.

In the default config MS AD does not allow anonymous access for most of the entries. Why your LDAP client hangs is another question only you can answer.
