We use an LDAP backend for authentication.  I set up our 
backends.local.php this way.  FWIW our web servers talk to LDAP over a 
local private network, so we set tls => false.

Based on your error message, are you sure you set 'disabled' => false in 
your config?

$backends['ldap'] = array(
     'disabled' => false,
     'driver' => 'ldap',
     'logout' => true,
     'name' => 'FanMailPlus',
     'params' => array(
         'host' => 'myLDAP.hostname.domain',
         'port' => 389,
         'basedn' => 'ou=addresses,o=antespam.com',
         // LDAP object key attribute.
         'uid' => 'uid',
         // The attribute storing the password.
         'attribute' => 'userPassword',
         // These attributes will enable shadow password policies.
         // 'shadowlastchange' => 'shadowLastChange',
         // 'shadowmin' => 'shadowMin',
         // This will be appended to the username when looking for the 
userdn.
         'realm' => '',
         // Use this filter when searching for the user's DN.
         'filter' => '',
         // Hash method to use when storing the password
         'encryption' => 'plain',
         // Whether to enable TLS for this LDAP connection
         // Note: make sure that the host matches cn in the server 
certificate.
         'tls' => false,
         // Determine the user's DN. %u will be replaced by the user's ID.
         'userdn' => 'uid=%u,ou=addresses,o=antespam.com'
     ),
     'policy' => array(
         'minLength' => 8,
         'maxLength' => 128,
         'maxSpace' => 0,
         'minUpper' => 1,
         'minLower' => 1,
         'minNumeric' => 1
     ),
     'preferred' => '',
);
