Hello Robert,

Already tried using the "=" and got another error:

Mon Sep 30 14:36:02 2013 - INFO | Exception occured: <class 'ldap.OPERATIONS_ERROR'>
Mon Sep 30 14:36:02 2013 - INFO | Exception value: {'info': '000004DC: LdapErr: DSID-0C0906E8, comment: In order to perform this operation a successful bind must be completed on the connection., data 0, v1db1', 'desc': 'Operations error'}

Well that's better -- the prefix is probably ok.  Now you have a simple bind error -- most likely incorrect login credentials.  If your server allows anonymous bind, you can use that in your cobbler config. 

If your LDAP server doesn't allow anon bind, then test your credentials with the demo_connect.py script below, see

http://www.cobblerd.org/manuals/2.4.0/6/2/2_-_LDAP.html
