        Interesting to me is that at no point is port 383 contacted.

Why 383? LDAP is 389.

Solaris snoop is being stupid. A TCP connection has *two* port numbers -
one for each end. e.g. [1.2.3.4:3456] <=> [5.6.7.8:389] is a TCP
connection between IP address 1.2.3.4 port 3456 and IP address 5.6.7.8
port 389.

It is only showing you one of those.

        So why do I need to have ldap:/// going ???

Because your LDAP client only supports standard LDAP, or because you
haven't told it to use TLS. Sorry, I don't know this actual software
you're using. All I can give you is clues to work it out. e.g. read the
docs and find a setting which says "use TLS for LDAP connections" (if it
supports it at all)

Which is why about 5 messages ago I suggested reading the man page for ldapclient, which is what is supposed to create and configure the file in question that is getting edited, and it has a section on TLS.
