Get a debug log on the client. Most likely you didn't set the ldap.conf file that the client is actually using.
Note that getting the debug log on the server is not all that useful here since it is *receiving* an "unknown CA" alert from the client; it is the client that's complaining, not the server.

Attached is the output of the server - indicating that the ca is still "unknown " I've tried every combination of client/server configurations I can think of, and still get the same thing - I'm not sure what I'm missing here. Thanks Dennis (See attached file: server.out)

Hello:
I am trying to get TLS working on openldap-2.3.20. when I initiatea
search, the debug info at the server indicates "unknown_ca". According
to
RFC 2246, this means that the "CA certificate could not be located or couldn't be matched with a known, trusted CA". My question: Isn't the slapd.conf "TLSCACertificateFile" directive what tells slapd which CA to trust? If so, why isn't it working?
See the Admin Guide http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin23/tls.html
You need to configure the client.
