Greetings,

I'm getting strange errors about self-signed certificates in OpenLDAP 2.1.8
with OpenSSL 0.9.6b-28.  ldapsearch -Z with debugging turned on complains:

TLS trace: SSL_connect:SSLv3 read server hello A
[read certificate]
TLS certificate verification: depth: 1, err: 19, subject: /C=FI/ST=Too Cold Place/L=Espoo/O=Espoo Kingdom/CN=Universal Super Deluxe CA Service, issuer: /C=FI/ST=Too Cold Place/L=Espoo/O=Espoo Kingdom/CN=Universal Super Deluxe CA Service

	additional info: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed

However, the server certificate in question is *not* self-signed, it is
signed by a CA known to both parties, just the way a good little certificate
should.   The CA certificate is, of course, self-signed -- but all CA
certificates are!  The certificate exchange also works quite nicely in 2.0.23,
so the certificate file locations etc are configured correctly.  What on
earth is the problem, and how do I fix it?

Enclosed below are printouts of the CA and server certificates in question:
