Turn on debugging in tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties :

I read through the Apple server documentation at http://help.apple.com/advancedserveradmin/mac/10.8/#apd2DB8221F-ACD1-489E-A17D-7FB82752318D

Timeout for our Mountain Lion clients is set to 10 seconds so I set the LDAP timeout to 15 seconds. Now working ok.
