I think we'll need to see the LDAP access log to see what is going on. 
You'll find it in /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-YOURINSTANCE/access. Just a 20 
or 30 line snippet should be fine.

Not really sure. I'd look in the KDC log (/var/log/krb5kdc) to see if 
something is being denied.

Can you do a klist on the user to see if they got a service ticket for nfs?
