RHEL4, LDAP, TLS

[James Cooley]

Ryan,

Do you have your Certificate Authority Certificate defined in
/etc/ldap.conf?

The line looks similar to the following:

tls_cacertfile /etc/certs/myCACert.cer

And is the CACertificate file readable by everyone?

Check those two items first, and if they don't solve your issues, I'll
think of other problem areas.
