I'm trying to view a user in LDAP which was recently added to a Windows 2000 Active Directory Service. I'm not seeing the user when I query LDAP, and I'm guessing I need to reboot the service. Any advice for how to do this?

No no no no no no no. And might I add, no.
It's a common misconception that the solution to all Windows problems is a reboot or a restart of something. Sometimes it does fix it, but what have you learned about what caused the problem, and what have you learned about how to fix it properly or how to avoid it in future?
Like Kevin said, first of all give us some more info about your environment. Secondly, let us know what you mean by "when I query LDAP". Are you using some third party tool for this, or submitting an LDAP query in code? There may be something amiss in your LDAP query, and trying to brute-force a fix by just rebooting the server or restarting the LDAP service will never fix it if so. Can you see the user in AD Users & Computers? Can you bind to the DN of the user?
