^{Originally posted by **Narfmeister** February 21, 2024} Hi, I'm currently attempting to implement ldapRecord and am having luck with authenticating and reading user details. What I'm encountering is when an invalid password is supplied I receive an LdapRecord \LdapRecordException of `ldap_start_tls(): Unable to start TLS: Local error.` What seems odd is that after 3 attempts, the account is locked out in ActiveDirectory and returns the correct lock out message. Something odd seems to be happening specifically when an invalid password is supplied. Supplying an invalid username for example seems to appear as expected:  I'm just following along with the Laravel Breeze guide in the documentation and I'm not sure where I've gone wrong as the authentication appears to be succeeding and other exceptions such as lockouts & invalid usernames appear to be processing correctly. It's only invalid passwords where this is happening. Has anyone experienced this or have any advice? I'm currently using Laravel 10.45.0 with ldaprecord-laravel 3.4.0 and PHP 8.3.3 Cheers
