net-ldap worked very well for me.

require 'rubygems' # just in case
require 'net/ldap' # http://rubyfurnace.com/docs/ruby-net-ldap-0.0.4/
require 'pp'

ldap = Net::LDAP.new :host => "server.example.com",
	:port => 389,
	:auth => { :method => :simple,
		:username => "username",
		:password => "password" }
treebase = "dc=example,dc=dom"
filter = Net::LDAP::Filter.eq("objectCategory", "user")
ldap.search ( :base => treebase, :filter => filter) do |entry|
  pp entry
end

puts ldap.get_operation_result
