I'm not sure what exactly changed between GF 2 & 3 in that area but I
think this has to do with how the ssl socket used by the ldap client was
created.
Did you use com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory for the outbound ldap over
SSL connection?
My guess is that your LDAP server might have been configured to ask the
clients to *optionally* provide a certificate, otherwise the client
wouldn't have just blindly sent a cert.
