137 or 127? 137 is a very uncommon error. If running on Solaris, this
FAQ may be relevant -- http://nagios.org/faqs/viewfaq.php?faq_id=17. If
127, it means that your command_line in your command{} definition is
incorrect, specifically that the path to the plugin is incorrect or the
plugin file name itself is incorrect.

You'll need to provide OS version, nagios version, how you installed
nagios and the plugins (package or source), the command definition for
check_tcp, the values for any macros used in that definition and the
host definition for ldapsevr1 for us to guess much further.

When you performed your test run of the plugin from the command line did
you run it as the nagios user exactly as it's defined in your command{}
definition? Running a plugin as the nagios user (as nagios does) can
result in different behavior than if run as the root user.
