HI!
I vaguely remember that there were code changes to the hostname cert
checking when connecting via StartTLS ext.op. or LDAPS. But I'd prefer
if the default behaviour would be strict like it was.
I'm testing with RE24 libs.
Ciao, Michael.

You'll have to be more specific. What are you seeing that it doesn't do any more?

The server cert has this subject name for server name nb2.stroeder.local:
/C=DE/L=Karlsruhe/O=stroeder.com/OU=ITS/CN=nb2.stroeder.local
But I can successfully connect to it with this command:
ldapsearch -H ldaps://localhost:1391
From my understanding this should not be possible by default.
Ciao, Michael.

New subject: TLS hostname check screwed up?
HI!
I'm using libldap of RE24 and have a problem with host name checking when
doing TLS.
OpenLDAP's debug output (real hostname exactly replaced by srv.domain.local):
------------------------------ snip ------------------------------
TLS: hostname (srv.domain.local.) does not match common name in certificate
(srv.domain.local).
------------------------------ snip ------------------------------
Is this because of the trailing dot?
Ciao, Michael.

Did you update opensuse-11.1 recently? I have faced some problems with
updated openssl-0.9.8h-28.10.1 and certificate verfication.

Does it work with 2.4.17? Or do you only see this with RE24? There were
some recent changes made to the code. I'd let you know the commits, but
the OpenLDAP site appears to be down.

Probably. The RFC requires an exact match, there's no exception for dots.

It seems I messed up something locall. Sorry for the noise.
Ciao, Michael.
