You’ll need to setup your pg_hba.conf file for LDAP. There are several different ways to do this, but a lot depends on how your LDAP server is setup. It’s impossible to really accurately say what you’ll need in that file.

Greetings,
Please don't top-post. I'd also suggest not cross-posting.

If you are working in an Active Directory environment, you should really
be using Kerberos/GSSAPI, not LDAP. This is done by specifying 'gssapi'
in your pg_hba.conf.
Using LDAP for auth isn't secure and isn't necessary in an Active
Directory environment. If you are running an LDAP-only environment then
you should really be considering deployment of a proper authentication
system, such as MIT Kerberos or Heimdal Kerberos.
Thanks!
Stephen
