Nothing in the certificate contains the hostname of the server
(ldap.fi.trl)... which explains why GnuTLS complains when you test using
gnutls-cli... and probably causes ldapsearch to fail.  You should regenerate
your certificate.
- Certificate[0] info:
# The hostname in the certificate does NOT match 'ldap.fi.trl'.
