Hi,

don't forget either to
* add on the client workstation the CA certificate that signed the LDAP
server certifcate to /etc/openldap/ldap.conf (TLS_CACERT parameter)
* or to disable the certificate check: ("TLS_REQCERT never")

You can easily test fro the client whethe rit worked or not :

ldapsearch -x -H ldaps://your.ldap.server.example.com -b "" -s base

if the result of this command is the follwoing error then you have not
configured the CA on the workstation correctly:
ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)
        additional info: error:14090086:SSL
routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed

Otherwise you will have the DSE base attributes...
