So you are saying remove those TLS lines from /etc/openldap/ldap.conf and put them in the ldif file as:
olcTLSCACertificateFile: /etc/openldap/cacerts/wildcard.securesites.com.cert
olcTLSCertificateFile: /etc/openldap/cacerts/wildcard.securesites.com.csr
olcTLSCertificateKeyFile: /ect/openldap/cacerts/wildcard.securesites.com.key ?
olcTLSCACertificateFile line probably shouldn't be there. The other two
look reasonable.--

My /etc/openldap/cacerts looks like:
TLS_CACERTDIR /etc/openldap/cacerts
TLS_CACERT /etc/openldap/cacerts/wildcard.securesites.com.cert
URI ldap://fl1-lsh99apa007.securesites.com/
BASE dc=wh,dc=local
That looks like an ldap.conf file. Your certificate should be configured within your slapd config and not your client config, unless it is a self signed certificate.
See the manpage for slapd.conf or slapd-config, and the Admin Guide for the appropriate TLS config.
But when I do a ' ldapsearch -d -1 -x -LLL -ZZ', I get:
ldap_create
ldap_extended_operation_s
ldap_extended_operation
ldap_send_initial_request
ldap_new_connection 1 1 0
ldap_int_open_connection
ldap_connect_to_host: TCP fl1-lsh99apa007.securesites.com:389
ldap_new_socket: 3
ldap_prepare_socket: 3
ldap_connect_to_host: Trying 10.227.2.90:389
ldap_pvt_connect: fd: 3 tm: -1 async: 0
ldap_close_socket: 3
ldap_err2string
ldap_start_tls: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)

Hi,
In order to for LDAP to work with TLS, does the certificate names need
to match the server name?
My admin gave me a certificate but it's called wildcard.com.cert, the
name of my server is not 'wildcard'.
Analyze the contents of the cert and verify the CN is really '*.example.com':
openssl x509 -in wildcard.com.cert -text -noout
If so, then your LDAP clients probably will accept it as a valid
certificate (this typically works for web browsers), but your mileage
may vary.
We have worked with a wild card certificate provider before. In
addition to offering a *.example.com cert, they may also offer a
certain number of tertiary certificates (e.g. ldap.example.com) priced
in with the wild card cert.
