Hi,

I've got a strange problem with Apache 2.0.54 mod_auth_ldap and OpenSSL 2.2.26 
on Solaris 8.

LDAP authentication does work most of the time, but occasionally I get "[LDAP: 
ldap_simple_bind_s() failed][Can't contact LDAP server]" messages and users 
can't log in. In Ethereal I see the web server sending SYN and RST packets but 
no LDAP exchange taking place at that time.

We also tried mod_authz_ldap, an other now unmaintained LDAP authentication 
module. That module too occasionally reported errors like "cannot bind to 
[4499] LDAP Server".

One idea was that the problems were caused by the somewhat unusual network 
infrastructure - a set of directory servers behind a load balancer, but manual 
ldapsearch commands never caused any problems, and a modification to mod_ldap 
to close always the connections (to avoid problems with mod_ldap connection 
pooling and the load balancer closing the connection prematurely) didn't change 
anything.

I've seen other people ask about bind failures with mod_auth_ldap, but they 
were all related to handshake problems with LDAPS.

I'd appreciate any ideas...

Ulf
