WS Ping ProPack has an LDAP querying tool built in to it, not to mention
a fairly fast port scanner, finger, whois, IP lookup, etc tools.
(www.ipswitch.com)

MS IE 5.0 also adds the capability of doing ldap://servername entries to
do some rudamentary querying as well.

Hope this adds to the discussion....
