Did you configure the agreement to use SSL? Error 91 means some sort of
connection problem, or invalid argument to the LDAP API e.g. you are
attempting to use LDAP on the secure port instead of LDAPS.
You can verify that TLS/SSL is working by using ldapsearch from the
command line. On the directory server machine:
/usr/lib/mozldap/ldapsearch -h ADhostname -p 638 -Z -P
/etc/dirsrv/slapd-instancename -s base -b "" "objectclass=*"
Or use /usr/lib64/mozldap/ldapsearch on a 64bit system.
