Okay so at least I know it works! I did try using LDAP settings but it's only my second time using LDAP on Linux so I was getting the parameters wrong and locked myself out a few times. How does one reset the authentication settings if this happens. Though I don't have anything uploaded to review board it would save me doing a reinstall each time I lock myself out.
The error I came across with LDAP was that it had failed to bind to the server and from reading other similar problems it seemed as though the intial connection had to have login credentials to perform the bind. On a previous system I did not have to do this, anonymous bind should work fine.
