Rails - Mar 2012 - Ruby rails - net-ldap search not working

I am trying to search ldap. This is doing successful authentication,
ldap connection is successful. Then when I make a search query it can
not read attributes from LDAP (AD). What is wrong here?


#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require "net-ldap"
$username = String.new

class ActiveDirectoryUser
  SERVER = ''10.10.10.10''
  PORT = 389
  BASE = ''DC=mydomain,DC=com''
  DOMAIN = ''mydomain.com''

  def self.authenticate(login, pass)
    conn = Net::LDAP.new :host => SERVER,
                         :port => PORT,
                         :base => BASE,
                         :auth => { :username =>
"#{login}@#{DOMAIN}",
                                    :password => pass,
                                    :method => :simple }
    if  conn.bind
        conn.search(
        :base => BASE, :filter => Net::LDAP::Filter.eq(
"sAMAccountName", login ),
        :attributes => %w[ givenName ], :return_result => true) do
|entry|
        puts "givenName: #{entry.givenName}"
        $username = entry.givenName
        end
        return true

    else
      return false
    end
  rescue Net::LDAP::LdapError => e
    return false
  end
end

if ActiveDirectoryUser.authenticate(''myusername'',
''mypassword'')
puts "Authentication Successful! The user is "+$username #I get this,
but blank username
else
puts "Authentication FAILED!"
end
