As it looks like you're working in a Microsoft Windows AD environment,
I'd strongly suggest you consider using Kerberos/GSS authentication
instead of LDAP. With LDAP, the user has to constantly re-type their
password and the password is sent to the PostgreSQL server. Neither of
these are ideal and both are avoided by simply using Kerberos, which is
what AD uses.
Authentication using LDAP really shouldn't ever be done in an
environment which has Active Directory.
Thanks!
