The man page for "slapd" (section 8C) states:

 The  URLs  should  be of LDAP
          (ldap://) or LDAP over TLS (ldaps://) or LDAP over  IPC
          (ldapi://) scheme without a DN or other optional param-
          eters, except an experimental extension to indicate the
          permissions  of  the underlying listeners.


It should read:

 The  URLs  should  be of LDAP
          (ldap://) or LDAP over SSL (ldaps://) or LDAP over  IPC
          (ldapi://) scheme without a DN or other optional param-
          eters, except an experimental extension to indicate the
          permissions  of  the underlying listeners.


Since LDAPS is SSL, not TLS.  This may be why some people reach confusion on
this issue.
