Doesn't display any error msgs, but doesn't actually do anything to the LDAP server. I've looked at the site, but it is incredibly bare; not even any links for mailing lists, support, etc. Any ideas where I might be able to find some help for it? I enabled full logging on my OpenLDAP server, and I see it failing with TLS negotiaiton for some reason, even when I don't want it to use TLS. Any thoughts where I can find more info? Thanks, Eric
