In order to get pam/nss working (I assume by "login" you mean login to the operating system) you need to configure pam/nss ldap to do TLS, which is the file /etc/ldap.conf, which takes the below parameters in slightly different format. I don't know if you need TLS_CERT and TLS_KEY - are you attempting to do client cert auth - EXTERNAL bind? > > URI ldaps://<ldapserver>:636 > BASE ou=UTENTI,o=postel,c=com > host kingu.postel.com > TLS_REQCERT allow > TLS_CHECKPEER yes > TLS_CACERTDIR /etc/ssl > TLS_CACERT /etc/ssl/cacert.pem > TLS_CERT /etc/ssl/cert.pem > TLS_KEY /etc/ssl/privkey.pem > > > I activated ssl on my ldap server and i installed my cacert.pem on > it. i didn't anything else.
