I am having an issue with the initial configuration to generate LDAP queries. In the GUI i have my settings as such 

Anyone that is a splunk admin have any idea on how to make the ldap queries work? I have tried the configurating via the add on for active directory and my ldap.conf file is set as

[ADS]
alternatedomain = abc.bcd.com
basedn = dc=ads,dc=abc,dc=com
binddn = CN=SplunkUser,OU=Service Accounts,OU=User Accounts,DC=ads,DC=abc,DC=com
port = 3269
server = x.x.x.x
ssl = 1

however, with the test connection, it does not work.
