Core 5 LDAP Connection Issue

I have been trying to set up LDAP on my 5.0.6 box, but for some reason I cannot get Zope to contact the LDAP server. Every time I try to add a new LDAP Multi Plugin, this is the error I get:

Type:
Value: {'desc': "Can't contact LDAP server"}
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ZPublisher/Publish.py", line 126, in publish request, bind=1) File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ZPublisher/mapply.py", line 77, in mapply if debug is not None: return debug(object,args,context) File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ZPublisher/Publish.py", line 46, in call_object result=apply(object,args) # Type s to step into published object. File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Products.LDAPMultiPlugins-1.14-py2.7.egg/Products/LDAPMultiPlugins/LDAPMultiPlugin.py", line 99, in manage_addLDAPMultiPlugin , REQUEST=None File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Products.LDAPUserFolder-2.27-py2.7.egg/Products/LDAPUserFolder/LDAPUserFolder.py", line 463, in manage_edit connection = self._delegate.connect() File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Products.LDAPUserFolder-2.27-py2.7.egg/Products/LDAPUserFolder/LDAPDelegate.py", line 265, in connect raise e SERVER_DOWN: {'desc': "Can't contact LDAP server"}

I have set everything up to this point exactly as the guide says (http://wiki.zenoss.org/Enabling_LDAP_Authentication_in_Zenoss_Core_5) and now I'm at a loss. I have tried drilling down into the scripts above, but have had no luck so far. I know that my box can hit the LDAP server on 383 and 636 by running an openssl command for either port.

Has anyone come across this issue at all

Besides upgrading my system to 5.1.x, I believe my issue ended up being firewall-related. I have a 3 host configuration using the ZooKeeper ensemble, and my 2 resource hosts were having the LDAP traffic blocked at the time.
