do "man nss_ldap" to see the configuration variables for /etc/ldap.conf - they are similar enough to /etc/openldap/ldap.conf to cause confusion.On Wed, 2009-06-24 at 18:55 +0200, Jean-Noel Chardron wrote:Dumbo Q a écrit :I've managed to get past the the strangely obscure method of installing an SSL certificate, and from the server side everything appears to be OK. Actually its a "CACert" certificate, rather then self signed. Using Jxplorer, I can connect the the DS using SSL, accept the certificate, and I'm all set.I think you have to use the directive TLS_CACERT or TLS_CACERT_DIR in /etc/ldap.confHowever, I am having a ton of trouble figuring out how to use an untrusted ca for my linux user authentication. I changed /etc/ldap.conf to use ldaps://, and it attemtps to connect as expected. I think this would work, if I could figure out how to tell it to accept the certificate. I get the following error message in DS after running getent passwd.[24/Jun/2009:12:24:02 -0400] conn=3 op=-1 fd=66 closed - Peer does not recognize and trust the CA that issued your certificate.

TLS_CACERTDIR <path> Specifies the path of a directory that contains Certifi‐ cate Authority certificates in separate individual files. The TLS_CACERT is always used before TLS_CACERTDIR. This parameter is ignored with GNUtls.<snip>I think these may be the wrong variables. If I recall correctly, those variables are for /etc/openldap/ldap.conf and control openldap (and openldap related queries). pam uses /etc/ldap.conf.
I believe the variables are set like this: ssl start_tls tls_checkpeer yes tls_cacertfile /usr/share/ca-certificates/CA.pem or whatever the path happens to be. Again, I'm not an expert - just sharing what we did that worked - John
