I managed to configure Dovecot to use a local OpenLDAP server to authenticate clients, without using SSL. However, I would rather that LDAP is accessed using SSL, but I cannot get Dovecot to connect. All that I did was change "uris" to "ldaps://localhost", and this appears in the maillog:
Mar 18 12:53:00 server dovecot: Dovecot v1.0.rc15 starting up Mar 18 12:53:01 server dovecot: auth(default): ldap_bind((null)) failed: Can't contact LDAP server
Is there additional configuration that is needed for SSL?
Note that I altered the slapd.conf file from not requiring SSL to requiring SSL when I changed the "uris" parameter. And, of course, accessing the directory using ldapsearch works just fine. It seems that there's only a problem when using SSL, but I don't know how to debug it.
I have been using ldaps with dovecot since 0.99.x, and now with rc27 without problems. But I have never used auth_bind (yet, it's on my todo).
