That's pretty specific (ldap bind failed).  Would be useful to see what
the logs on the AD server say.

One thing that springs to mind might be realm inclusion/exclusion (e.g.,
if Horde/Passwd and AD are configured differently, where one uses
user@domain and the other uses on user).

Other questions follow:

That may be correct, I don't know, but the two cn= parts seems strange
to me...

Are you really storing the passwords clear? (See below)

>         'realm' => 'CASA.CULT.CU',

Does your active directory want the realm/domain appended, or not? Maybe
try it will this setting empty and see?

>        'encryption' => 'crypt',

Does it really use crypt encryption?  I don't know, I'm just wondering, and
wondering how this relates to the "clearPassword" attribute above...  But
then again, I know nothing about AD really, so...
