Has anyone setup Apache to connect to AD using LDAP over SSL (LDAPS) on port 636?

I am runing Windchill 9.1 M010 on Solaris 10 and needto useSSL as much as possible. Has anyone been able to setup Apache to authenticate to an MS Active directory using LDAPS on port 636?

The PTC Apache on Solaris (and AIX) is built with the iPlanet/Netscape
LDAP SDK.

There are many upsides to this, but one downside is that it is
prohibitively hard to configure with certificates for LDAPS. 
Furthermore the HP Apache binary on HPUX and the PTC Apache binary on
AIX do not support LDAPS directly due to linking issues on those platforms.

In all of these cases the solution is to use stunnel.

The PTC Apache on Windows uses the Microsoft LDAP SDK and thus
Microsoft's ceritificate configuration methodology.
