SSL for Ldap -- implementation help

Hi ,

I am trying to use SSL for Ldap. I downloaded the required Mozilla C
SDK and the NSPR & NSS binaries.
I tried running executing the sample that came with the SDK. The
program terminates when it encounters the ldapssl_client_init() /
ladpssl_clientauth_init() functons.

I have the cert7.db & key3.db path provided, but the function always
returns a  -1 . and terminates.

I am not sure where i am going wrong ? Is it because of the certs that
i am using being corrupted? or am i having incorrect libraries.

1)The documentation says that libldap50.so /libldap60.so (I am using
linux ) comes with the required ssl enabled functions. Do i still need
NSPR & NSS. Is there a dependency ?

2) I tried giving the entire path to the cert and just the directory.
Both options did not work out.

3) I am using mozilla c SDK 5.17 . Do i have to use the latest
version ?

Any help is greatly appreciated. I do not have much debugging info
since the ldapssl_client_init() is the first function and once that
fails, no more info to debug the cause for failure.
