pam_ldap receives Invalid credentials

Hi,

I am not sure why this happens but out terminal servers, routers, and
ancillary devices are able to authenticate with our LDAP server.  For
some reason pam_ldap claims "Invalid credentials" with the same exact
user and password.

What could be wrong?  I cant seem to figure out what is wrong with the
current log messages.  Is there a way to receive verbose messages from
pam and/or pam_ldap to figure out if it is sending the proper
authentication information to the LDAP server.

We are on a FreeBSD-6.2 stable machine.

Clues please,

Noah
