I vaguely remember there were bugs in back-ldap/back-meta ignoring TLS options. The work-around back then was to set env var LDAPTLS_CACERT and friends when starting slapd to let libldap pick up the TLS options from env.
Should be fixed in recent releases OpenLDAP though.
Ha, one of the few times I failed to ask what version of OpenLDAP was being used...
Jon, what OpenLDAP release are you running?

You didn't fail Quanah. I included the version number in my original description of the problem 'cause I didn't want to be "that guy". :D I am running 2.4.44.

So, following Howard's suggestion I did some testing with strace.
When back-ldap goes to make the proxy call I see an fopen for this file /appl/openldap/etc/openldap/tls/cacerts.cer which is the file I have explicitly configured. I then see an fopen for this file /appl/openldap/etc/openldap/tls/3a89cd48.0. I have no idea where this file name came from. If I copy the CA cert into this 3a89cd48.0 file or I symlink this file to my cacerts file the TLS handshake succeeds and the update is properly forwarded to the master. No matter what I specify in my configuration the TLS handshake only succeeds if the ca cert resides in the 3a89cd48.0 file.
