Rich & Rob, I am making some progress. I got it to work partially. My problem was that it did not like the default digicert root cert (the one I see by linking to /usr/lib64/libnssckbi.so). When I installed the digicert root cert that came with the server cert, it worked. I figured this out by looking at the server cert certification path and seeing it was broken. So I am now trying to turn it on for the console by ticking the checkbox (the admin server is next). It seems to work as I can save the setting and then I restart the services. However, when I go into the console and try to either "Manage Certs" or choose Configuration->Encryption I get a dialog that shows up twice: "An error has occurred, Could not open file (null). File does not exist or filename is invalid." I am able to untick the use ssl in console option and then I can manage my certs again. Any ideas on what is going on here. Again, thanks very much for your help. cheers, ski On 03/03/2010 08:46 AM, Rich Megginson wrote: > Ski Kacoroski wrote: >> Ok, looks like I need to reboot the entire server to get the admin >> console stop server functionality to work. > You probably could have just restarted the directory server and admin > server: > service dirsrv restart > service dirsrv-admin restart >> Now, has anyone had any luck >> using a * cert with the 389 server? >> > What problems are you having still? >> cheers, >> >> ski >> >> On 03/02/2010 03:24 PM, Ski Kacoroski wrote: >> >>> Hi, >>> >>> I am having problems with SSL setup.
