That's what I first thought too. But then I have 2 stupid questions: why are
there 2 options for http and https if they do the same
thing? And more importantly - why did one of them work and the other one
didn't? Are you sure that it doesn't start doing
certificate checks or something like that?
I think I remember getting some error message in the ldirectord logs regarding
mismatch between certificate name and requested URL
or something like that when I was using "service=https". After I changed it to
"service=http" it worked.
Thanks,
