Thanks everyone for all of your help. I just got it working, and the : Dec 20 12:22:17 solarisldap nscd[2377]: libldap: CERT_VerifyCertName: cert server name 'server-cert' does not match 'ldapserver': SSL connection denied Issue was simply an /etc/hosts problem. Once I looked closely at the CA, and server cert, and didn't notice "ldapserver", I though it must be nsswitch/hosts issues. I found the problem in /etc/hosts, corrected it, re-ran ldapclient, and hallelujah, it works: # id mmontgomery uid=1000(mmontgomery) gid=10000(UnixIS) Thanks, once again, for all of your help in getting this working. Have a good day.
