Proper answers for the scenario you set out have already been discussed, 
but on this "change the scenario" front, I might also suggest connecting 
to the external name on the external IP. Of course you'll eat some switch 
resources and might need to consider your topology/ACLs (for both OpenLDAP 
and the network) to keep things secure, but that's all one-time 
investment. Once completed, your current and future consumers enjoy a 
config that makes a lot more sense to the human eye moving forward.
