Trying to reconsider the topic we found that there is no plaintext password sent via network between the replicants, which was the case in the StartTLS on 389 scenario. This would reduce the problem with plaintext password for the replication manager to the storage, mainly the dse.ldif, I think. To be sure, I'd need to see your configured replication agreement to understand how it's been configured to authenticate. Provided you are using SSL (LDAPS) and simple bind, then the password *is* sent to the other server, but it's inside of TLS so it is secure. > We would be glad if you could confirm this thought. It would save us from trying again the use of client auth for replication which hadn't been successful yet. > Kind regards, — Sincerely, William Brown Senior Software Engineer, 389 Directory Server SUSE Labs, Australia _______________________________________________ 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
