Hey kevin,
Many Thanks for your quick reply.

Yes i am actually going to use SSL, i have already created cert.db files
using certutil... But i thought 1st to give a shot without SSL, as the
given Ldap server is a test server, enabled on both 389 and 636.

So coming back to configuration, below is what i have configured on ARDBC
LDAP form:

Host name: clients LDAP server hostname
Port: 389 for time being
Bind user: uid=test,ou=bindaccounts,dc=<clients LDAP hostname>,dc=com
Bind password: given password
No SSL.
LDAP Server generalised timing.
Failover timeout:5
Directory page size:1000
Base DN for discovery: dc=<clients hostname>,dc=com

So i guess only information which is not configured correctly is Base DN
for discovery, here I am not specifying ou.. but only mere Base DN.

I will give this a try and let you know.
Thanks again.

Onkar.
