TLS/LDAP confusion



Hello,

I have solved my TLS/LDAP problems now.

It appears that there are two different protocols for getting TLS
going:

port 389: client asks server to switch to TLS.

port 636: server expects client to use TLS from initial connection.

Some programs, eg pam_ldap and nss_ldap use port 636, but others, eg
gq and slurpd use port 389.


And despite all the warnings I have seen that this does not work, it
does:

slapd -d 1 -h "ldaps:/// ldap:///";
