php: scope in ldap_search

Is it possible to set the search scope in ldap_search?

I want to ask something like:
ldap://DOMAIN\username@ldapserver/dc=name1,dc=name2?one

but anyway... how can I set that I'd like to go one, base or sub?

ldapsearch() does scope sub
ldaplist() does scope one
ldapread() does scope base

OK.... where's what I found:
sub: ldap_search
one: ldap_list
base: ldap_read

I tried ldap_read to get a certain dn (the root node's dn).

This is the output:
Warning: ldap_read(): Search: Internal (implementation specific) error in blahblah.php on line 27.

Was that my mistake? I'm using ActiveDirectory as the LDAP server.. and I'm bound to it.

This is the code in question:

Code:

$search = ldap_read($conection, $dn, "");
$entry = ldap_get_entries($conection, $search);

The dn is the directory's root node. I've double checked.

Thanks for writing, man. Any idea of the error I wrote about?

The ldap_read() doc says:

Not sure at all if this is the cause of your error, but I'd fix that first.
