Hello Chuck -

According to the debug trace, the initial connection attempt to the 
LDAP server (AD) is failing.

In the first instance you will need to verify the IP address and port 
number of the LDAP server.

It is usually _much_ easier to proxy requests to an instance of 
Radiator running on the Windows box and use an AuthBy ADSI clause to 
connect directly to AD.


regards

Hugh

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
