Verify the server is configured properly for LDAP over TLS (ldaps://)
using the OpenSSL s_client program (with certificate verification
enabled).
Well, I guess the specific question I would have here is "what
certificates/keys/etc are even required for this?". When setting up the
LDAP server I was told by the people who supply it that I would need only
a trusted root certificate from the LDAP server to do authentication, but
I was also told by another person at that company that I would need more
than just that one certificate. What specifically would LDAP need? I
suspect my problem isn't really so much one of a misconfigured server so
much as not having all the necessary certs and/or keys available, that
sort of thing.
See the Admin Guide, it's all spelled out there.
