Recent web2ldap changes unicodePwd in AD. You could set trace_level=2 in 
etc/web2ldap/web2ldapcnf/misc.py to see what's passed to python-ldap.

For the SSL part see Demo/initialize.py in python-ldap's source 
distribution. Off course you have to check back with your admin whether 
SSL is enabled in your AD DCs and which CA cert to install on the client 
side.

Ciao, Michael.
