Jim, Maybe 1.1 doesn't have this option? Jan 13 19:17:15 vds5 dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] auth(default): Error in configuration file /usr/local/dovecot/etc/dovecot-ldap.conf line 26: Unknown setting: user_global_uid
It might be that those were replaced with mail_uid and mail_gid in 1.1? Which version are you using? Can you send me your entire configuration? This is really getting annoying. :) Thanks.
