Hello, Phil,
thanks for your reply, too.
My messages to the list are delayed (by moderation as announced) for
hours. So the list does not show up-to-date situation. See last
paragraph and other mails for actual status.

There was no connection. Resolution of "ldap" does not work. Using IP
address or FQDN of LDAP server works. See my mails dated 20:43 hrs. and
