I am following the howto on
https://linuxhostsupport.com/blog/how-to-install-ldap-on-centos-7/
which matches a number of other howto's.
I have tried this on two Centos 7 boxes and both fail in the same way
when trying to set the certificates. I have tried <insert search engine
here> without success.? I found that by adding '-d 1' you enable
debugging, but the debugging did not help.
Anyone got any suggestions?? All steps prior to this worked successfully.
