Instead of using only a self-signed cert, wouldn't it make more sense to
1) create your own CA
2) create a CSR using certutil (see RHDS docs, section 9.3.2)
3) let your CA issue the cert
4) import the CA cert (see RHDS docs, section 9.3.3)
5) import the server cert (see RHDS docs, section 9.3.4)
6) install the CA cert on your clients (not yet in RHDS 10 docs,
    but I can easily backport the content)

Then clients who trust the CA cert will automatically trust the connection.

Step 6 is now available in the RHDS 10.4 docs:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_directory_server/10/html/administration_guide/enabling_tls#adding_the_ca_certificate_used_by_directory_server_to_the_trust_store_of_the_operating_system



By the way: kudos to the clear and concise Red Hat documentation.

Thanks. That's good to hear.


Regards,
Marc
