To verify my LDAP settings I usually use JXplorer (Java based) to verify those settings. I've learned a lot about LDAP though it.
It is a Java based OpenLDAP Browser/Editor and you can click objects and get the corresponding DN for your admin user whether it is admin or Manager. When you browse the tree initially you could bind anonymously (no user, no passwd) just to get the DN (Copy & Paste works) to login as. Copy that and login again with the new DN and passwd you have. If that login fails, you have a login problem with the admin or Manager user to sort out.
