I don't know the answer directly, but I do know this:

You should get it to work with real LDAP first, using OpenSource
tutorials, help, etc.

This is probably going to be fairly easy once you focus on just PHP +
LDAP.

Then attack Active Directory as a separate problem, because there are
some funky things with AD -- but you can probably find them here:
