Hi,

Apache error_log:

[Thu Feb 24 16:48:00 2011] [debug] mod_authnz_ldap.c(403): [client 10.1.85.181] [25242] auth_ldap a

ping master.ldap.ebupt.com is OK.

My FTP LDAPS authentication is OK as below:
server:master.ldap.ebupt.com
port:636 Enable
SSL:checked
Base DN:ou=staff,dc=ebupt,dc=com
anonymous bind:checked
Search Filter:(objectClass=*)
User DN attribute:uid

Thanks.

============================

I don't see any "LDAPTrustedGlobalCert" entries that tell Apache how to verify the server certificate... Have you defined any in the config file?
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ldap.html

Otherwise, you could also try adding this directive to see if it has any affect:
LDAPVerifyServerCert Off

Other than checking to verify the host name matches what's in the certificate, and making sure the CAs are setup, you could also check out this message:
http://subversion.open.collab.net/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=3&dsMessageId=395193

FWIW!
