thanks for the response MHart. I'm glad to hear someone has it working and that i'm the screw up (not the first time).
I'm actually in a corporate environment and doing everything on the internal side of the corporate firewall. I know I have access from the mediawiki server to the LDAP server as both anonymous or Admin. We are a creative company and hence, we use OSX servers for almost everything. I'm running mediawiki on one server and connected to an OpenLDAP server. I'm actually in the process of evaluating Tikiwiki, however, I'm curious to resolve the problem with mediawiki and ldap authentication. What did you have to do to get it to connect? I assume the only thing you had to do was cut/paste code into the localsettings.php file and change the values to point to your directory??? If so, can you provide the code you cut and pasted, to include the changes you made.
thanks in advance, Lou

We use mostly MediaWiki here at Intuit and have successfully integrated LDAP and other auth methods. I suspect that Batti Lou needs to disable all firewalls and other restrictions on his (her?) HTTP box. If Linux, turn off iptables as well as SELinux. Then re- enable firewalls until it breaks again - then you'll know what's causing it.
