Re: [389-users] Problems with SSL

Rich,

Thanks very much for your replies.  I tried again with no luck.  I had 
it working with the self-signed cert using setupssl2.sh.  I changed the 
password on the database to one I could type and verified that it worked 
ok.  I then added in my star cert, removed the self-signed certs, and 
stopped the services.  When I tried to restart I get this error:

[root@ldaptest slapd-nsd-org]# service dirsrv start

I use digicert as my authority.  They have options for the certs when I 
get them (e.g. Apache, Tomcat, Java, etc.).  I have been choosing Apache 
and it seems to install just fine.  Perhaps I need to choose a different 
type?

It looks like by adding in my cert and removing my old certs, it trashed 
the database somehow.

certutil -P ldaptest -d . -L
certutil: function failed: security library: bad database.

I am going to do another reinstall and try again.  Do you know of any 
documentation for using non-self-signed certs with 389 directory server 
all the docs I find are for self-signed certs.

cheers
