LDAP/Active Directory authentication failure (post 1 of 2)

I've configured GLPI to authenticate with the Active Directory 2003 servers my department runs.  I've been over the documentation time and again.  Here is the configuration:
________________
server: ldap://123.234.345.456
port: 389
basedn: CN=servername,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=dept,DC=univ,DC=edu
rootdn: CN=adminuser,CN=Users,DC=dept,DC=univ,DC=edu
password: adminuser-password
login field: samaccountname
usetls: no
ldap aliases: never dereferenced
---------------------------------

all of these values are copied directly out of the LDAP/AD configuration tree.

When I enter a valid userid-
-  with the windows domain (domain\userid) the login returns "Unknown User <crlf> unsucccessful authorization in LDAP"
-  without the windows domain a (userid) and password login returns "Incorrect username or password"

I do not believe this to be a bug because in 0.72b because I receive the same results using 0.71.3 when trying authenticate against active directory.  With the same account, I can authenticate successfully against an IMAP server.  I need the AD/LDAP for the additional user information that Exchange does not provide.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I may be missing or have configured incorrectly?

I would just like to say I really appreciate all of the assistance I've received in this endeavor.  I do not know how much, but my university will be supporting this project financially (assuming I can get the project approved and moved into production.)

Thanks much all,
Secher

We've been using AD / LDAP with GLPI successfully.

My config is pretty well the same with the exception of the basedn.

Where yours looks like:

basedn: CN=servername,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=dept,DC=univ,DC=edu
rootdn: CN=adminuser,CN=Users,DC=dept,DC=univ,DC=edu

Ours would be:

basedn: DC=dept,DC=univ,DC=edu
rootdn: CN=adminuser,CN=Users,DC=dept,DC=univ,DC=edu
