Answer 1

If you have another DN for your Anonymous Username, you have to check Search First and give all ldap "characteristics" for it.

Example :

    LDAP Hostname : yourLdapHostname.com
    Base Distinguished Name : OU=UsersEmea,DC=emea,DC=msad,DC=mycorp
    Search Attribute : sAMAccountName
    Check Search First
    Anonymous Username : CN=myanonymous,OU=otherservice,DC=emea,DC=msad,DC=mycorp
    Anonymous Password : <password of myanonymous>

Answer 2

You need to install the LDAP PHP extension. Usually, you can do this with something like:

apt-get install php5-ldap
yum install php-ldap
