[KLUG Members] self signed certificate, make it go away

[Dirk H Bartley]

This sounds quite similar to the issues I had when I updated to RH7.2 and could not get
TLS working with LDAP to the LDAP client on the upgraded machine.  I never did figure out
what was causing the problem or was able to solve it.  Banged my head up against it for a
few hours to, to no avail.  So if you figure it out.  Let me know.
