If you're using SSL or TLS, the LDAP client library is going to compare
the names in the certificate that the server uses against the value that
was given in the client's configuration (in this case "127.0.0.1"), and
it looks like they're not matching up here.

Typically the certificate uses an actual hostname as a "CN" value in its
subject, so you'd need to specify the server URI using a hostname rather
than an IP address to make sure that they match.

If that's not what's going on here, please post a copy of the
certificate that the server's using so that we can have a look.

HTH,
