Sharan, you can use Wireshark for traversing any traffic, including
LDAP. It's really good and is better than logging in that case.
Quoting Thomas Mortagne : Hi Sharan,
Thanks for the reminder ;)

Just added in
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication
The specific targets for LDAP authentication are:
log4j.logger.com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.ldap=debug
log4j.logger.com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP=debug
The first line is for XWiki LDAP tools and the second is for
authentitication process itself.

You can use xwiki."authentication.ldap.group_mapping" to
link LDAP
groups to existing XWiki groups. The membership is updated when the
user log in.
