Unless you *require* LDAPS or LDAPv3 start_tls, then you don't *need* all
the Net_SSLeay or IO::Socket::SSL stuff.. Given that your problems below
seem mostly related to Net_SSLeay, it might be useful to ignore it for now.

Well it tries to connect to TCP port 443 (HTTPS), but that seems to work
too:
% openssl s_client -connect www.bacus.pt:443

That looks like Net_SSLeay has not been configured correctly for your
platform. It tries to get random numbers from somewhere external on startup,
and does different things on different platforms. Perhaps that doesn't work
on OSF or on a version of perl built in 64-bit mode.

That looks very bad, but it might just be the program connecting to a
non-SSL port. Or it might be a problem with 64-bit code in Net_SSLeay.
I think you should try and get Net_SSLeay working correctly (if you really
need it). Perhaps the Net_SSLeay authors can help here - they might know if
their code is 64-bit clean or not.
Cheers,
