Phil, was this output from an SSL trace?

IIRC there's usually more data related to a cert error,  it's been 7, or 8 years since I ran the trace but usually the trace data

shows the TLS version also, it's a stretch but are you running TSL 1.1 or higher?

I'd agree with Attila also, I've had my security team load a cert for me that required mixed case, and they defined the LABEL with all caps

I find nothing for that error in the doc (either the text or the error
number). https://colinpaice.blog/2021/11/03/using-z-os-ldap-with-tls-1-3/
discusses the error, but I don't know how to check it! Other clients work
but that doesn't prove much-we know z/OS is more stringent about following
the rules than many.

Ideas?
