Utilising the su account, I used the command :

dscl localhost -read /LDAPv3/ldap.x.x.x/Users/xxxx 

This shows me users details under OSX10.4.10 
If I try this command in  terminal window under OSX 10.5 , I get the 
following error message
<dscl_cmd> DS Error: -14009 (eDSUnknownNodeName) ?

To answer Peters question (is SSL involved ?)
Yes SSL is involved
I also also tried it with SSL turned off and on , once again only works 
with OSX10.4.10

kind regards
