Thanks for your help all. it looks like CRYPT was the problem. I've changed passwords over to SSHA and everything works as designed.

However, whenever users authenticate via LDAP the server appears to check only the first 8 characters of their passwords.

You're probably using the CRYPT password method. Other, newer and safer
methods, such as SSHA, can store much longer passwords.
