Its connecting fine, its just not authenticating.  :)

Jamm cleaner works at the dn level, if only because in some setups, it
would not (and should not) have access to the jamm.properties file
from the webapp.  The current version takes everything from the
command line.  Before 1.0 we should probably tweak it to take the
settings from a file.

jammCleaner needs at least the following options:
 -D,--dn           the dn to bind with
 -b,--base         base dn to search from
 -w,--password     password to connect to LDAP with

This is a different question that's not really related to jammCleaner.
However, the answer is yes.  That is configurable in the
jamm.properties file.  Its really just a shortcut for convince so you
don't have to type the full DN out all the time.
