Just before I left yesterday I was successful. It turns out self_check is 
fine, it tells the ldap server to handle the hashing. I found my problem 
was in my "user_field" setting. I had to change it to "mail" from "cn". I 
was thinking it was something used for display only, but apparently it 
needs to match your filter setting. Thanks for all the help.
