Hi Susan,

I was using capital Z in the ldapsearch, I've uncommented "ssl on" in /etc/ldap.conf
Still the same problem.
# ldapsearch   -x -ZZ -h ldapserver -b 'dc=example,dc=com' '(uid=someuser)'
ldap_start_tls: Connect error (-11)
        additional info: Start TLS request accepted.Server willing to negotiate SSL.

Any other thought?

Thanks again,
Jo
