Good questions.
First is the standard. Is the MS exchange server LDAP compliant?
Netscape has employed the author of the LDAP protocol ( he wrote
is doctoral dissertation on LDAP) as a result they are completely
LDAP compliant. Make sure there are no inconsistencies with respect
to the MS requirements.
Second is security. Make sure that the MS version is not requiring
SSL over LDAP or LDAPS which uses port 636. You maybe inadvertently
blocking the port it is requiring.
Third is UDP versus TCP. How is your access list or rule set configured.
Make sure you are setting the rule correctly with respect to the protocol.
These are some suggestions. It may point you in the right direction.
Best of luck.

Subject: LDAP Port opening on Firewall
Help me please!
I know the port 389 should be open for proper functioning of LDAP. I have
case specific trouble - The Netscape directory server and Microsoft exchange
server are differed by a firewall in between. The maintenance people
complain that they could not replicate the directory entries correctly.
What could be the problem? The port 389 is open. I doubt it is the problem
with Servers configurations.
