Binding to active directory not as administrator?

RT Users
1

hi
I have rt 3.4.2 authentication with ldapsmb to active
dir 2003. the only problem is i have to put in an
admin righted users credentials in clear text in the
config file to do the initial bind other wise i get
invalid credentials.
LDAPAuth: Cannot bind to LDAP: 49
LDAP_INVALID_CREDENTIALS

Is there any way to bind as a lesser user ?

you should have one user that has read only permissions, (this is only
makes sense) in addition ldap should be able to handle anonymous binds,
for queries only, but it looks as if you either did not set this up
properly or you defined the base as too broad.
