Hi All !

I wonder if anyone has seen this anomaly, when following my instructions
on setting up a JNDIRealm, on my website
(http://cymulacrum.net/writings/adv_tomcat/c487.html). I wrote these
instructions after version 5.0.19 of Tomcat came out and fixed the
character encoding issue in the JNDIRealm.

In my document I described how to :
1. Setup OpenLDAP so it runs with SSL/TLS enabled
2. Setup Tomcat's JNDIRealm so that it communicates with
ldap://localhost:636, the secure port instead of 389.

I never noticed anything strange, because my JNDIRealm setup seemed to
work fine, but when I tried to put SecurityFilter on, I found an error.
Thinking that it was probably SecurityFilter, I looked at the logfiles,
and I was surprised to find that, even before I had installed
SecurityFilter, there was that same error being logged inside
catalina.out. I just never bothered to look before because everything
seemed to be running fine.

Here's what the error looks like. It only occurs on startup, all LDAP
operations work fine with no errors:

JNDIRealm[Catalina]: Connecting to URL ldap://localhost:636
JNDIRealm[Catalina]: Exception performing authentication

    <rest of errors snipped>

I'm not really sure where to begin, or even if it is significant (since
LDAP authentication still works). If you want to repeat this error for
yourself, you can follow the instructions on my web page. Any help would
be greatly appreciated !
