Thanks for the reply, Dieter. Yes it seems slapd has not been built with openssl. Here is the output of ldd:
Did you actually install the openssl-dev RPM package? You must have the headers and linking libraries on the system so that OpenLDAP can actually link against it. And yes, you'll have to rebuild OpenLDAP. I would suggest just running "configure" until you see that it successfully found the TLS/SSL headers/libraries.
