Hi lambam,
I am trying to do LDAP client certificate mapping. I had given an insight of my configuration.
My certmap.conf file:
certmap example ou=employees,o=us.com -------------? this is the DN of the CA issuer,
example:verifycert on
example:DNComps cn,email,roomNumber
example:FilterComps l,email,uid,telephoneNumber
example:CmapLdapAttr certSubjectDN
Generation of CA cert:
certutil -S -n "CertCA" -s "ou= employees,o= us.com" -x -t "CT,," -m 1000 -v 120 -d <path/to/instance cert db>
-z noise.txt –f pwdfile.txt
Is this correct.
I assume ou=employees,o=us.com is my CA cert issuer. So I am using it as issuerDN value in certmap.conf.
creating client certificate.
certutil -S -n "certuser" -s "cn=certuser, ou=employees,o=us.com " -c " CertCA " -t "u,u,u" -m 1003 -v 120 -d <path/to/instance cert db> -z noise.txt –f pwdfile.txt
and adding userCertificate;binary attribute to that user entry, after creating binary certificate.
certutil -L -d <instance-path> -n "certuser" -r >usercert.bin
When I try to ldapsearch:
ldapsearch -h myhost -p 636 -Z -P /etc/opt/dirsrv/slapd-<instance>/cert8.db -N " certuser " -K /etc/opt/dirsrv/slapd-<instance>/key3.db -W "password" -b "o=us.com" cn=certuser
ldap_sasl_bind: Invalid credentials
ldap_sasl_bind: additional info: client certificate mapping failed
But when I change the issuerDN in certmap.conf file to whatever dn (even if it is non-existing and invalid) I am getting the search
Result properly. But the criteria is the issuerDN in certmap.conf should be exactly the same DN whose issues the CA certificate.
The problem is whenever I use correct issuerDN in first line of certmap.conf file I am getting error.
I am totally confused. Can somebody help me to get rid of this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Neuron Ring.
Hello Neron Ring.
Certificate to LDAP Mapping:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/pdf/console60.pdf
Page 198 ish.
API:
----
>From page 201 of the above guide:
< You can use the Certificate Mapping API to create your own properties. For
< information on using the Certificate Mapping API, see “Certificate Mapping SDKs”
< at the following URL - which is followed by a defunct link.
Try here, rather:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/cert-system/sdk/7.1/
I hope this helps, laters. I'll keep an eye out for further questions
along this line.

Subject: Certificate to LDAP Mapping API
Hi all,
I need to use “Certificate to LDAP Mapping” functionality.
The README file in the source ldapserver/lib/ldaputil/examples path suggests:
Refer "Certificate to LDAP Mapping API" documentation to find out about the various API functions and how you can write your
plug-in.
And also to refer “Managing servers” manual. But I couldn’t get those documents. How can I write my own plug-in for LDAP Mapping?
Or what can I do with Certmap.conf file to configure Certificate to LDAP Mapping.
Can somebody provide link to that document or explain
what is Certificate to LDAP Mapping.
Thanks in advance,
Neuron Ring.
