Re: [389-devel] Please review: [Bug 182507] clear-password mod from replica is discarded before changelogged

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Noriko,

i've read the changelog encryption design document. Indeed, it's a
sound idea to make AD-389 replication more robust. I have two
questions about it:

* if i understand correctly you say that the server needs a
certificate in order to generate the symmetric key. Is this key
generated only once? I mean, if we change the expired server
certificate it won't trigger the symmetric key regeneration?
* The replication changelog that contains the mixed entries
(cleartext, encrypted 3DES, encrypted AES etc) - is it still readable
by the server? Does each changelog entry contain a flag that describes
whether the entry is cleartext/AES/3DES? Can the server "detect" in
any other way whether the changelog entry is encrypted and if yes with
what type of cypher?

Thank you
