Re: Can i use Same Certificate for all my ldap server

You can also use a SAN cert, and put in just the names of the servers you will be using.  Maybe better than using a wildcard cert.

ie:

ldap1.example.com
ldap2.example.com

Hi
I am planning to deploy all my ldap server by puppet.
so I am wondering, Can i use Same Server Certificate and CA certificate
(Directory server) for all my server ???

if yes, then under which directory shall i place those certificate ??

Certificates typically have the hostname embedded in the subject so it is specific to that host. The exception is wildcard certs (*.example.com). So unless you have a wildcard cert, which I'm not really recommending, you'll need to get separate certs for each of your servers.

I'm a cli guy, so I don't know how you'd do this in console, but the certs and keys go into the NSS database in /etc/dirsrv/slapd-YOUR-INSTANCE
