Well, I've tried changing that setting, and still get the same error message.
That was: "[Tue Sep 22 10:21:54 2009] [error] [client 192.168.1.240] PHP Warning: ldap_start_tls(): Unable to start TLS: Can't contact LDAP server in /srv/www/htdocs/w/extensions/LDAPAuthentication/LdapAuthentication.php on line 213, referer: https://192.168.1 .130/w/index.php5?title=Special:UserLogin&returnto=Main_Page" Right?
If the error message is true, MW tries STARTTLS.
Also you stated: "I also show on the NetWare server that it is listening on port 636"
This is (in most cases) so called LDAPs (LDAP over SSL) on a - from the connection on - secure Port. Which is different from LDAP with TLS (started by STARTTLS), here TLS starts later on on an unencrypted connection.
From the blog: "Specifically, the plugin defaults to tls using LDAP (port 389)"
So this is what we see. The plugin tries TLS not SSL. You may check the plugin config to make the SSL setting work.
