Hi all! I'm using Debian Sarge with openldap, samba and TLS. I can't figure out if TLS works or not so please help me out here. The certificate verification is OK. I installed the server looking at the howtos on idealx.org I can add users, groups and computers to ldap. I've tried with sucess to add computer to the domain. Now to the point. When I do a test like: ldapsearch -x -ZZ -D "cn=admin,dc=dbb,dc=su,dc=se" -W -b '' -s base '(objectClass=*)' namingContexts Everything works only if I have TLSVerifyClient allow or none. If I use TLSVerifyClient try or demand which generate a "ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (81)" I estimate the server choosed not to use TLS at all But when I try to make a lookup error in ldap.conf. I change the the HOST from FQDN to it's ip address. Now if using "TLSVerifyClient allow" I get a certificate error which should be correct. This must also mean that ldapsearch reads correct ldap.conf and certificate. I'm very confused here and really need some help.
