hi... i trying to have a secure conetion between dovecot and directory server, but i cant do it. The documentation are so poor ( http://wiki.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP) these are my configurations files:

(pre: i have a directory server accepting secure conections (port 389 via TLS and port 636 via SSL).

File "/opt/csw/etc/dovecot-ldap.conf":

hosts=100.0.4.98 dn = cn=bindmailusers,cn=mailusers,dc=prueba,dc=uy dnpass =passbindmailUsers tls = yes ldap_version = 3 base= cn=mailUsers,dc=prueba,dc=uy deref = never scope = subtree user_attrs = uidnumber=uidnumber, gidnumber=gidnumber,homedirectory=homedirectory, mailbox=mailbox user_filter = (&(objectClass=mailaccount)(uid=%u)(disableimap=FALSE)) pass_attrs = uid=uid,userpassword=password pass_filter= (&(objectClass=mailaccount)(uid=%u)(disableimap=FALSE)) default_pass_scheme = CRYPT user_global_uid =12356 user_global_gid =12356

File "/opt/csw/etc/openldap/ldap.conf" (openldap client):

TLS_REQCERT allow host 100.0.4.98 TLS_CACERT /opt/csw/etc/postfix/ldap-cert/cacert.pem

these are my log file:

# tail dovecot-log.log : : dovecot: May 22 15:48:31 Error: auth(default): LDAP: ldap_start_tls_s() failed: Can't contact LDAP server

any suggest :(
