err=32 means no such object.  That is, ou=Group,dc=cognifide,dc=pl does 
not exist.  In your file above, you have

suffix          "dc=vuw,dc=ac,dc=nz"

Do you have ou=Groups,dc=vuw,dc=ac,dc=nz ?

I have no idea....I suspect not, need an English explanation on some of
this stuff...Fedora has a nice gui but it hides things so trying to
determine if the test user is in the right "place" for the external
query would seem an issue...

Is there a command line syntax to run to see if I get a positive
password return?
