Hi Kent,
I looked in your excellent Document OpenLDAP_TLS_howto, also because
Quanah  Gibson-Mount mentioned it.

In Chapter 7 Using TLS you give the following example:

ldapsearch -x -b 'dc=myserver,dc=com' -D "cn=Manager,dc=myserver,dc=com"
'(objectclass=*)' -H ldaps://myserver.com -W -ZZ

I thought TLS was working on port 389 and only SSL was using ldaps://
If that's true the command would be:

Pierre, SSL and TLS are essentially the same thing. OpenLDAP does SSL+TLS on port 389. By specifying ldaps://, you request that it make an encrypted call to the OpenLDAP server, via SSL/TLS encryption.
