I think it is a connectivity problem, are there servers located in the same data center, or on the same server?

Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] ILLiad and LDAP SSL connection issue

Thanks, Forgot to mention that.
We have the certificates in a Trusted Certificate store on the W2008
server that resolved the cert errors we were initially getting.

I'm not sure what 'binding with a service account with Domain Admin
privileges' means in this case.
Our LDAP is not AD, but Novell eDirectory (if that matters).
Also, the bind to LDAP is successful; I would think an error at that level
would throw an error rather than getting dropped on the response.
