The attached file contains a patch against the current pdns source code 
(original 2.9.17 + ldapbackend_2.9.17.diff) in svn which implements the 
possibility of specifying your own ldap filters used for lookups and axfr 
transfers, e.g.

ldap-filter-lookup=(&(txtRecord=*):target:) or
ldap-filter-axfr=(&(description=public):target:)

Default for both is ":target:"
If you specify your own filters don't forget to include ":target:". Otherwise 
you will get all results and not only the requested one(s). It is possible 
that your filter contains more than one ":target:" string.

Have fun
