check_xi_service_ldap!-b "DC=whro,DC=local" -D "CN=ron bennington,OU=WHRO Staff,OU=Real Users,OU=User OUs,DC=whro,DC=local"-P "PAssword" -2

Does your server require the Bind DN: of DC=whro,DC=local ??

I tried it without the bind and get this:
Could not search/find objectclasses in CN=Ron Bennington,OU=WHRO Staff,OU=Real Users,OU=User OUs,DC=whro,DC=local

benningtonr,
do you have SSL enabled on your LDAP server? If so, I believe you'll want to use check_ldaps instead of check_ldap.
try your connection string here:
[root@CENT6_x64_IP_79 /]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ldaps
check_ldaps: Could not parse arguments
Usage: check_ldaps -H <host> -b <base_dn> [-p <port>] [-a <attr>] [-D <binddn>]
[-P <password>] [-w <warn_time>] [-c <crit_time>] [-t timeout]
[-2|-3] [-4|-6]

I get the following:
[root@nagios ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ldaps -H 192.168.99.x -D CN=Ron Bennington,OU=WHRO Staff,OU=Real Users,OU=User OUs,DC=whro,DC=local
Could not init startTLS at port 389!
[root@nagios ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ldap -H 192.168.99.x -D CN=Ron Bennington,OU=WHRO Staff,OU=Real Users,OU=User OUs,DC=whro,DC=local
Could not search/find objectclasses in Bennington,OU=WHRO

Are you using TLS, SSL or neither in your implementation of OpenLDAP?

Are we sure you can connect to the LDAP server at all?
Can you run the following from your XI machine
