But we seem to be getting spurious Start TLS failed messages also without any competing connections. Here's one using ldap+STARTTLS but no other ACCEPTs anywhere near:
These aren't spurious - your TLS library has genuinely failed to start a session. Which TLS library are you using? What OS are you running on? The most common cause for periodic failures is running out of entropy for the PRNG.
They noted RHEL7 and 2.4.40, which would mean MozNSS, as the most recent RHEL7 build of 2.4.44 switched back to OpenSSL. I would just add this to the many reasons not to use RHEL for OpenLDAP.
