Welcome to CAS!  I'm not an LDAP expert either (we also don't use Fastbind),
but I'll try to provide some basic guidance and then our OpenLDAP experts
can chime in (we have a few).

Great, I need help.

No need to put anything there!  The ContextSource is generic so it can be
used for both the FastBind and the other option.

I tried it without userName and password properties as in the enclosed config file (modified LDAP URL)

That is no userName or password properties so that sounds correct?

The UsernamePasswordCredentialsToPrincipalResolver should actually be
configured already in your deployerConfigContext.xml.  Unless you've removed
it, there's no need to do anything with it!

No I haven't removed it and I assumed that part didn't need changing as it wasn't mentioned

Have you tried starting up your CAS server after configuring it with LDAP?
If you've got any Spring configuration issues you'll see them.  If you have
authentication issues you may not see them until you turn your logging level
up (in the WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties you can set it to DEBUG instead
of INFO or WARN).

When I tried with the attached deployer config it refused to start. Let me say here that my Tomcat configuration is challenging as I have to run on Centos and it already had an old JDK installed on it. I had to wrestle with an eel just to get the 1.5 Sun JDK on there and used by Tomcat. I had to manually tweak a link to get it to run at all and I couldn't get the update-alternatives thing to work. Anyway, I get some "errors" even when starting tomcat without CAS with LDAP :-

Starting tomcat5: /usr/bin/rebuild-jar-repository: error: JVM_LIBDIR /usr/lib/jvm-exports/java does not exist or is not a directory
/usr/bin/rebuild-jar-repository: error: JVM_LIBDIR
(repeated 3 times)

catalina.out contains:-
log4j:ERROR setFile(null,true) call failed.
java.io.FileNotFoundException: cas.log (Permission denied)

But I can log into CAS using the simple authenticator so it's not completely fatal

Anyway, I then switch to the attached deployerConfigControl.xml and I lose the CAS login page altogether and just receive a message thus:

HTTP Status 404 - /cas-server-webapp-3.2.1/index.jsp

type Status report

message /cas-server-webapp-3.2.1/index.jsp

description The requested resource (/cas-server-webapp-3.2.1/index.jsp) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/5.5.23

Sun also has some LDAP specific logging stuff.

Cheers
