No, sqwebmail and the ldap server can be on different machines - this is how I run it. You need to debug your authentication problem step-by-step, just saying "I can't login" is not sufficient. Probably the best idea is to turn on debugging on the LDAP server - then you can see whether queries are being received, if so what they are, and what the results are. Also: tcpdump -i eth0 -n -s1500 -X tcp port 389 will show you the LDAP queries (but they're BER-encoded, so you won't be able to see easily the difference between "bind accept" and "bind fail", but you will be able to see the search filters and attributes returned) If no messages are getting sent across - then you need to check whether authdaemond.ldap is running (if not, did you configure properly?) and whether the pop3 configuration says to use authdaemon, and the authdaemonrc configuration says to use authldap.
