Hi,

Firewall-Port  for LDAP/LDAPS open? Otherwise, please post your config. Btw. i went in troubles using ldap when browsing the whole subtree. So, i indicated just 1 level, not the whole subtree in search area.

Using TLS/SSL for LDAP? I always set it to plain for import and afterwards back to TLS.
With encryption activated, i never could import.

Setting Transport to TCP - Standard in System: Access: Servers solved the issue.

Do not forget to revert back to TLS/SSL after import

Do you think this could be a bug?

Maybe. You can open an issue on github.

I haven't this problem. Do you have imported the certificates of your LDAP server?

You lucky one. I imported the root, intermediate and issuing CA. This should be enough to verify certificate, since chain is complete.
Authenticating works with TLS/SSL, just the import and sometimes the list of authentication containers just works with no encryption.

But since I import once per installation, this is an issue with workaround that I can live with. There are other things that are more important to be fixed.
