LDAP query performance problem

Greetings all,

I'm currently running SuSE 10 Linux as a LDAP client that authenticates against my company's Active Directory servers for logins. I have everything working in terms of logins, home directory creation, etc., however my login times range in the 3 to 4 second range.

Many articles I've read point towards DNS for this latency. To that end I verified that all was resolving, both forward and reverse, for the hosts and servers and even went so far as to add the domain controllers to the /etc/hosts files to all my clients.

I'm fairly certain that the problem is not related to name resolution and in fact can be traced back to the query I am using. Does anyone know of a succinct LDAP query that can be used for successfully logging in against AD?

Thanks in advance for any help others are able to provide. Hopefully my pain will be someone else's gain.
 
More specifically, I'm looking for the correct search that would be used for the nss modules inside of ldap.conf.
