those options are stored on the database

However the strange thing is that once it had started up successfully once I can comment out the ldap_rootdn and ldap_password configuration items and it it still works after a restart. I'm assuming that it's being cached somewhere but I've been unable to determine where.

It seems that option is stored on the Mnesia database, on the table 'local_config'. It should be updated if you set it differently on ejabberd.cfg.

You can see it if you dump the database to a text file. You can also see it with the Erlang/OTP Table Viewer if you are too curious :). Add this option to the erl shell when starting ejabberd: -s tv
