LDAP authentication is configured on a site-wide (as opposed to per-blog) level, so only Network Admin accounts have access to the configuration to LDAP connection information.
Please make sure you have PHP compiled with LDAP support. This will show up as an LDAP section in your phpinfo() if it is correct.
Remember – all the code for the plugin was contributed by volunteers, and you can show your gratitude by giving back to the community!
<h3>How It Works</h3>
When enabled, this plugin can automatically create WordPress user accounts and blogs for LDAP-authenticated users. Assuming user credentials authenticate against the LDAP server, creating local accounts and blogs follows this 
algorithm:
Create a new WPMU User, with LDAP username and a randomly generated password. 
Some user information, such as first and last name, is extracted from the 
 information returned from the LDAP server. 
Actions for user creation and activation are triggered. 
The user’s domain / URL are created depending on plugin configuration (i.e., 
 VHost vs SubDir). 
If the option is set, a blog is created, with path and name based on the LDAP 
 username and the blog is activated with the user being Administrator, and 
 appropriate actions are triggered.
It should be noted that even though a random password is created for a user (for WPMU accounts), it is never displayed to the user. This is intentional so that there is no confusion as to which password should be used; it will always be using LDAP credentials. As a result, though, if ever LDAP is disabled or if the server is unavailable, users created with LDAP authentication will be unable to log in unless their passwords are reset.

This plug-in extends Simple LDAP Authentication plug-in <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simple-ldap-authentication" rel="ugc">Simple LDAP Authentication</a>. 
Plug-in works as followed:
Entered credentials are checked by all hash types available on LDAP-server (ssha, smd5, crypt/standart-des, crypt/enhanced, crypt/md5, crypt/blowfish, sha, clear, md5) by specified login.
If password is correct:
If user already exist in WordPress database
<ul>
<li>Password, name, surname, e-mail are changed to those existing on LDAP-server.</li>
</ul>
If no such user is in WordPress database:
If automatic user transfer is disabled by plug-in settings:
<ul>
<li>Existing user data is updated</li>
</ul>
If automatic user transfer is enabled by plug-in settings:
<ul>
<li>
Existing user data is updated
</li>
<li>
New user is created with profile received from LDAP-server.
</li>
</ul>
If the password was incorrect:
<ul>
<li>Wrong password error is shown.</li>
</ul>
