I got the plugin working in my environment.
There were a couple of things that had problems that were difficult to find.
1) how to determine what was wrong with the connect?
Solution: enable ldap debugging Code added. Submitted as commented out.
2) Syntax error in code for checking bind failure was wrong.
Solution: Fix syntax error and update the message info.
3) Why does the lookup/search fail?
Solution: Turn Referrals to 0. http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=7620
This was in the php.net manual but no reasons were given as to why one should use it.
Even the link didn't understand why you need to do this in an Active Directory environment. I
believe I have a clue. If you have more than one site (ie a domain controller per site) then
your search will get referred to the master of the tree which in my case is not the local. It would always
get error #1: Operation failed.

Diffs attached for the fixes.

Could probably add the debug and referral as options in the
web interface.
