this is the part that is probably killing you on your LDAP authentication
piece.  Active Directory does not allow anonymous bind for LDAP
authentication.  You will need to create a non-privileged user in AD to do
the binding and place the user name and password for that user in your
RT_SiteConfig.pm file.  This user will be used buy the
RT::Authen::ExternalAuth plugin to bind to AD LDAP.  Once bound
RT::Authen::ExternalAuth will be able to search for the user attempting to
login and use *that* persons credentials to authenticate into RT.
