After you add a network server to OS X you can further specify some options, such as use of SSL and such. The 
options you selected, or preselected for you, do these settings work in your configuration? If it is for example 
trying to use SSL and your server does not support it it will show up red.

Secondly, OS X lets you specify a schema, in order to get it to work I had to change 
the used schema to RFC2307. Next thing to do is checking the syslog to determine which queries OS X sent and you 
should be able to figure out where it is going wrong. Run slapd in debug mode if neccesary.

As for Windows, I have no idea, but this should get you started.
