Thanks for the reply.  The ldapsearch utility works fine with the -x option.  
So I believe the
problem is with Evolution.

I have tried a few more configuration combinations and found one where the bug 
I filed goes away. 
However, now I am getting a lot more evolution-data-server crashes.  I'll 
update my bug report to
include the new crash information.

The summary is search scope "one" never works.  Searches return nothing.  Only 
search scope "sub"
will return any contacts.

Use secure "Never" returns the most matches.  It returns the same contacts as 
ldapsearch.  It
crashes.

Use secure "Whenever Possible" and "Always" return the same matches.  These 
crash too.

Here are the details:

Common Configuration Settings:

Login method: Anonymously
Search base: <empty>
Timeout: 1 minute
Download limit: 100

Variations:

Configuration 1:
-----------------
Port: 389
Use secure: Never/Always/Whenever Possible (tried each one)
Search Scope: one

Search experiments:
1. Name begins with "s"
 => Returns nothing
2. Name begins with "scott"
 => Returns 4 contacts
3. Name begins with "sam"
 => Returns nothing
4. Name begins with "scott"
 => Returns nothing
(Does not crash)


Configuration 2:
-----------------
Port: 389
Use secure: Always
Search Scope: sub

Search experiments:
1. Name begins with "s"
 => Returns 20 contacts, including sam
2. Name begins with "scott"
 => Returns 4 contacts
3. Name begins with "sam"
 => Returns nothing
4. Name begins with "scott"
 => Returns 4 contacts
(This is new: Just crashed the address book:  The Evolution addressbook has 
quit unexpectedly. 
Your contacts for ldap://server.company.com:389/??sub will not be available 
until Evolution is
restarted.)

Configuration 3:
-----------------
Port: 389
Use secure: Whenever Possible
Search Scope: sub

Search experiments:
1. Name begins with "s"
 => Returns 20 contacts, including sam

3. Name begins with "sam"
 => Returns nothing
4. Name begins with "scott"
 => Returns 4 contacts
5. Name begins with "m"

(Crashed again: The Evolution addressbook has quit unexpectedly.  Your contacts 
for
ldap://server.company.com:389/??sub will not be available until Evolution is 
restarted.)


Configuration 4:
-----------------
Port: 389
Use secure: Never
Search Scope: sub

Search experiments:
1. Name begins with "s"
 => Returns 41 contacts, including sam
2. Name begins with "scott"
 => Returns 4 contacts
3. Name begins with "sam"
 => Returns 1 contact
4. Name begins with "m"
 => Returns 44 contacts
5. Name begins with "mo"

(Crashed again: The Evolution addressbook has quit unexpectedly.  Your contacts 
for

restarted.)
