I am able to bind fine with my active directory server, but when I try
to get any attributeu, I get the above error. I need to get the
givenName and sn. I think I am proving the wrong context?

CODE:
String ldap_search_context ="OU=users,DC=mycompany,DC=com";
String attlist[] = {"sn"}
  try
               {
              DirContext ctx = new InitialDirContext(env);
           NamingEnumeration answer = null;
           System.out.println("Connection toString: " + ctx.toString());
           Attributes matchAttrs = new BasicAttributes(true);
           matchAttrs.put(new BasicAttribute("cn","username"));

The BasicAttribute you want to match needs to be a valid directory search
string.

E.g.
new BasicAttribute("(cn=username)")
