For fixing the issue you may change your web.config files below and watch out for highlighted attributes and correct them according your envoriment.

1. In the web.config of the different part CA, Web App and STS you have:

<membership>       <providers>
<add name=”LdapConnection” type=”Microsoft.Office.Server.Security.LdapMembershipProvider, Microsoft.Office.Server, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c”
server=”Your Server IP” port=”389″ useSSL=”false”
useDNAttribute=”false”
userNameAttribute=”uid”
userContainer=”ou=MyCustomOu,o=contoso,dc=contoso,dc=ldap
userObjectClass=”Inetorgperson”
userFilter=”(ObjectClass=Inetorgperson)”
scope=”Subtree”
otherRequiredUserAttributes=”sn,givenname,cn”
connectionUsername=”uid=postman22,ou=MyCustomOu,o=contoso,dc=contoso,dc=ldap
connectionPassword=”blog.bugrapostaci.com” />
</providers>     </membership>

3. After those changes you have been able to logon in the site collection using FBA.

For SUN LDAP 5.2
useDNAttribute should set to false and userNameAttribute must be uid
connectionUsername
attribute defines that which user account be used in binding . ( Thats not  prevents to other users logins.They can login sharepoint with their passwords)
important issue here defining the connectionUsername attribute like “uid:postman22” is not enough you may need to add full path like “uid=postman22,ou=MyCustomOu,o=contoso,dc=contoso,dc=ldap
