OpenLDAP + SSL/TLS - working or not???



I "think" I have this working (OpenLDAP + SSL/TLS), but when I tried to use
LDAP Browser 2.3 from Softerra, I can't connect it with secure connection.

it said "Initializing SSL..." then "[ERROR 81] Can't contact LDAP server

If I do a search on a Linux client, it is fine
ldapsearch -x -H 'ldaps://myserver.mydomain.com' -b
'uid=root,People,dc=myserver,dc=mydomain,dc=com' -D
'uid=root,ou=People,dc=myserver,dc=mydomain,dc=com' -W -Z

Although the ldapsearch above gave me
"ldap_start_tls: Operations error"
"additional info: TLS already started"
but I still got the result from ldapsearch

So, I am wondering if there is problem with my OpenLDAP+SSL/TLS.   If
ldapsearch can return good result with -H 'ldaps...', can I said the ldap
client are talking to the server with SSL/TLS?  or ldapsearch will switch
back to ldap if it can't use ldaps?

Does anyone have the LDAP Browser working with SSL/TLS connection to the
OpenLDAP server?

thanks
