rlm_ldap: could not start TLS

[Marc Delisle]

Hi,

I'm trying to make freeradius 1.1.0 contact a LDAP server.
I configured freeradius --with-edir.

The error I get is
"rlm_ldap: could not start TLS Can't contact LDAP server"

I followed this document
http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tip/15922.html

except that in my case, the LDAP server is on Netware 6.5 SP5.

On this Netware server, LDAP responds correctly over SSL, as tested with 
  Novell's ldapsearch on port 636.

In radiusd.conf, in the ldap section, I use
tls_cacertfile  = /usr/local/freeradius/etc/raddb/certs/rootder.b64

which is the self-signed certificate exported from the Netware's CA object.

I can provide other details about my "LDAP server" object in Netware 
upon request.

Thanks in advance,

Marc Delisle
