Hi Ian, You should be able to use "zlogin -S ..." to bypass the authentication. My mental model of how that actually works is that it just execs bash in the context of the zone (whatever "in the context of the zone" means). I don't expect that to do anything useful in a KVM zone, but it should work for OS and LX zones.
In answer to your question, the manual says that zlogin without the "-S" just runs login, so if the LDAP configuration is confused about who root is, then that would explain your symptoms.
