you have to use FQDN when connecting securely. and you have to use the exact name used in the certificate.
I am getting the following message in the /var/log/samba/smbd.log file when I start up samba and try to connect as a user. [2011/09/27 14:23:33, 1] lib/smbldap.c:another_ldap_try(1153) Connection to LDAP server failed for the 15 try!

I had this working on another machine, but that machine was needed for another purpose and lost the setup. I know I must be missing something simple and am checking the HOWTO for samba on the 389-Directory Server site.
