A method and system for an automated distinguished name lookup is provided for use in a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory operation. A user provides input via a dialog window for an identifier string which is not a distinguished name. An LDAP search filter string is generated that contains at least a portion of the identifier string. A directory search is requested using the LDAP search filter string. In response to the requested directory search, one or more distinguished names are received. In response to receiving a single distinguished name for the requested directory search, the received distinguished name is automatically applied in the LDAP directory operation. In response to receiving a plurality of distinguished names for the requested directory search, the plurality of distinguished names are presented to the user, and the user may select one of the plurality of distinguished names. The selected distinguished name is then applied in the LDAP directory operation, which may perform an authentication process for the user using a distinguished name received in response to the requested directory search. The user may also configure a dialog window for entry attributes and filters to be used while searching for potential distinguished names.
