First of all, it seems to have worked for me.

While I did use:

Hostname: ldap.pca.dfn.de
Base-DN: ou=DFN-PKI,o=DFN-Verein,c=de
Port: 389
searchfilter: (objectclass=*)

I also specified a Name....I assume you did same.

The one thing that I question is...  Is this server supposed to be
accessible externally?  I ask this since when I connect to it via an
ldap browser I can only get a list of organizations under the baseDN and
can't seem to search deeper...
