It would be really odd for the above uid to be valid.  More likely,
you want to use the filter "uid=lukman" and leave off @aaa.com.

Are you sure your dn is not "uid=lukman,dc=aaa,dc=com"?  Also, I'd suggest
making it a base search (add -s base), and change your filter to
"objectclass=*".  If you get "no such object", then for sure it does not
exist.
