It could be TLS min versions / max versions setting perhaps? But I think I'd want to see more detailed logging to be sure ... or even a packet capture of the handshake to see where that's failing. >> >> Does this ring a bell with anyone? > > Some googling sees me unearth this worrying thread: https://pagure.io/389-ds-base/issue/47536 > > Quite a while back I spent an enormous amount of debugging time on an Ubuntu version of 389ds that refused point blank to replicate. We eventually discovered an awful bug where 389ds had been bound to two competing SSL libraries, GnuTLS and NSS, and 389ds was passing NSS parameters (directory paths) to GnuTLS, which was silently failing and then eating error messages. We concluded Ubuntu was too broken to fix in any reasonable time and moved all LDAP servers to CentOS7, which worked. > > Doing an ldd /usr/sbin/ns-slapd shows that on CentOS8 389ds is linked to both NSS and OpenSSL, which looks worryingly like the same bug has crept into CentOS8. In the future there will be some openssl provided crypto opts for password hashing/enc, but no sockets are activated, and the symbol names are seperate so I think this may not be the cause. > > Anyone have any details? > > Regards, > Graham > — > > _______________________________________________ > 389-users mailing list -- 389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe send an email to 389-users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx — Sincerely, William Brown Senior Software Engineer, 389 Directory Server SUSE Labs _______________________________________________ 389-users mailing list -- 389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to 389-users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
