Hello again, Thanks for the reply. 
My Solaris 10 and 8 clients are working against SSL now, thanks!
For my Linx clients clients I am trying to follow the FDS wiki: How
to:SSL.

I am having a problem importing the root CA certificate on my Fedora
boxes. 
The Howto SSL link says to run this command to import the cacert.asc
file.

"cp cacert.asc /etc/openldap/cacerts/`openssl x509 -noot -hash -in
cacert.asc`.0"

However that responds with the below error. Anybody familiar with this
error?
Also I see Fedora has the certutil utility, can I use this to import the
ca root certificate like I did for the Solaris clients?

'Error opening Certificate cacert.asc
2312:error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or
directory:bss_file.c:352:fopen('cacert.asc','r')
2312:error:20074002:BIO routines:FILE_CTRL:system lib:bss_file.c:354:

Many Thanks
James

The end result with both SSL replication flavors is the same.
Both encrypt the replication traffic between your directory servers.
The client cert method, when properly implemented, will make life more
challenging for a prospective attacker who would like to impersonate
your replication manager identity.  In that sense, it is more secure
than simple auth with SSL.
