[Casper] Active Directory Bind problem

[Smith, William]

Hi Shawn!

This is standard behavior for AD connections. The same information you're
seeing is usually used for email and phone number lookups and any LDAP
utility will allow the students to see it regardless of whether you're using
Tiger or Leopard (or Windows or Linux or something else). Disabling this one
feature in Leopard doesn't prevent someone from accessing the data using
other means.

If you're concerned about privacy then I'd suggest modifying your AD
security to not allow read access to all users. Be very careful of this
because you can easily break systems that rely on AD lookups.
