How is openldap verifying my server's certificate?Maybe this is a variant of ITS#5582: Setting TLS_CACERT to any certificate.pem file also tells OpenSSL to check the system's standard installed certs. OpenLDAP should have a separate option for that, or the opposite - an option not to do that.
Thanks. I didn't find an option for turning on/off the use of a system's standard installed certs. Are you saying that you think something like that _does_ exist, or that you simply think it should?
I tried moving my certs directory out of the default location of /etc/pki/tls, but was still unable able to generate a failure to verify the certificate when TLS_CACERTDIR was set to /etc/openldap/certs.
