But also no connection error?

Then it could be the context you filled out is wrong, or the domain. You
dont need to fill out the context, it will be automatic detected.

What does it say?

Everyone should be able to log in with his username (samAccountName), do
NOT add the domain.

Yeap.

No, as you choose to not only authenticate against AD but also use it as
account-storage, there is nothing you need to do to be able to log in.

What does it say when you try to log in? Unknown user or password

To use EGroupware you need to set ACL to give run rights for
applications. Most easy is to create an admin user in setup. This can
also be an existing AD user. It will create 2 groups "Default" and
"Admins" with typical user and administrator rights.
With that user you can then log into EGroupware or use AD and add all
your AD users to "Default" and your admins to "Admins".
