Hi Malcolm,

Are you able to get any results from the LDAP server when you try the 
same search
using ldapsearch from the commandline on the Debian box?

Something like:
   ldapsearch -D LDAP_ACCOUNT -x -w -ZZ -H ldap://ggdc1.domain.int/ -b 
ou=Production,dc=domain,dc=int "(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)"

I'm guessing your LDAP server is MS AD so you will probably need to 
configure TLS.
The following items come from my configuration.

> Set( $ExternalAuthPriority, ["My_LDAP"] );
> Set( $ExternalInfoPriority, ["My_LDAP"] );
> Set($ExternalAuth, 1);
> Set( $UserAutocreateDefaultsOnLogin, { Privileged => 1 } );
> Set($AutoCreateNonExternalUsers, 1);

# Use TLS
Set($ExternalServiceUsesSSLorTLS,1);

> Set($ExternalSettings, {
>     'My_LDAP'       =>  {
>         'type'             =>  'ldap',
>         'server'           =>  'ggdc1.domain.int',

# Configure TLS settings
         'tls'               =>  {
             'verify'        =>  'require',
             'cafile'        =>  '/etc/ssl/certs/CACert.pem',  # Path CA 
file
          },

>         'user'             =>  'LDAP_ACCOUNT',
>         'pass'             =>  'LDAP_ACCOUNT_PASS',
>         'base'             =>  'ou=Production,dc=domain,dc=int',
>         'filter'           =>  '(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)',
>         'attr_match_list'  => [
>             'Name',
>             'EmailAddress',
>         ],
>         'attr_map' => {
>                 'Name'         => 'sAMAccountName',
>                 'EmailAddress' => 'mail',
>                 'RealName'     => 'cn',
>                 'WorkPhone'    => 'telephoneNumber',
>                 'Address1'     => 'streetAddress',
>                 'City'         => 'l',
>                 'State'        => 'st',
