We upgraded some client servers from RedHat ES3U4 to Redhat ES4U2 and now the ldapsearch string we used in our monitoring software to check if the customers openldap server is working is returning errors.

We were using:

ldapsearch -x -H ladps://host.domain.com:636

The URI is obviously incorrect here, would you mind posting the *exact* URI you are using?

For example, all our RHEL4 boxes (u0-u6) work with something like this:

ldapsearch -x -H ldaps://$server:636

(where I had set the shell variable server to the hostname of the server in question)
