Re: ldap_tls call failed: Can't contact LDAP server

["Chris G. Sellers" <chris.sellers@nitle.org>]

Run your openldap server with debugging turned on (-d option) and  
check the output.  Read the man slapd.conf for the different values of  
the -d flag and then see if you see why your connection is failing.    
Post those results here if you don't see the obvious root cause.
