I searched on google and found someone with exactly the same problem,
unfortunately noone seemed to have an answer for them at the time:

Is anyone successfully authenticating X sessions with GDM & LDAP?

I think this bug has been around for a long time, and I can't recall
the exact genesis of it, but it appears to be a bug in GDM.  For
some reason it can't authenticate to LDAP unless SSL is turned on.

I recall seeing it in a Red Hat bugzilla list some time back but
nobody seemed interested in pursuing it.  I've tried searching for
it again there recently but there are a lot of bugs reported on that
system and the search tools aren't great.

It does periodically recurr on bugzilla, e.g.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196297

KDM is probably a better choice.
