Thanks for the help. It says we need to 'rebuild' OpenLDAP to enable SSL. But can anyone clarify is it possible to enable SSL without rebuilding the OpenLDAP?

You could use stunnel seperately to tunnel your traffic or you recompile LDAP. Given that the direction seems to be going toward STARTTLS which stunnel can't do for you, you're probably better off recompiling.
