Your hostname will need to match the certificate you have installed. '-H ldap:///' will, instead, need to include the hostname matching your certificate.

Re: TLS certs needed for Provider and consumer

A startTLS session requires olcSyncrepl: starttls=yes tls_cacert=/path/to/CA, you may add tls_reqcert=demand. A SASL EXTERNAL authentication in addition requires a user certificate and a certificate key. -Dieter -- Dieter Klünter | Systemberatung sip: +49.40.20932173 http://www.dpunkt.de/buecher/2104.html GPG Key ID:8EF7B6C6

Problems with ppolicy_forward_updates and starttls with certificate-based auth

by Kartik Subbarao

I'm trying to get a consumer server to forward ppolicy-related updates to its provider server, and to use certificate-based authentication (SASL EXTERNAL) over STARTTLS when authenticating to the provider. This is with 2.4.23 on a Debian 5.0.5 system (I've seen similar issues reported elsewhere so I doubt this is platform specific). I'm running into multiple problems here. The core problem seems to be that enabling ppolicy_forward_updates breaks the chaining overlay such that it binds anonymously instead of with SASL EXTERNAL. Another problem is that bind operations to the consumer server start to return two result messages -- one with the error code of the chained operation, and one with the error code of the bind operation. This latter problem seems to the cause of the (still unresolved?) errors from this message thread earlier this year: http://www.mail-archive.com/openldap-technical@openldap.org/msg01215.html To simplify reproducing the problem, I've worked with test022-ppolicy in the openldap test framework. I've submitted ITS 6711 based on this. Here, I ran into another issue. I can't seem to be able to configure sasl external/starttls chaining properly with the cn=config style configuration that test022-ppolicy applies. The self-signed cert that I'm using works fine with replication, but it doesn't seem to work with chaining. This may or may not be another issue that needs to be resolved. In any case, with the attached files in the ITS, I hope that what I'm trying to do and the results that I'm getting should be as clear and unambiguous as possible. I'd appreciate any feedback on whether there is something else I need to configure or if there are bugs here that need to be fixed. Thanks, -Kartik

Use "startTLS" with port 389 and it will be secure. This is all well documented. Please read the slapd(8C) manual page if you want to understand the options for which port(s) slapd should listen to. Please read the ldapsearch(1) man page to see the options to ldapsearch that you can use to require startTLS. --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Sr. Member of Technical Staff Zimbra, Inc A Division of VMware, Inc. -------------------- Zimbra :: the leader in open source messaging and collaboration

Re: Syncrepl SSL fail

by Hugo Deprez

Hello Philip, thank you for your explanation. This is more clear now. So I changed my configuration like : Syncrepl rid=003 provider=ldaps://my.server:1024/ type=refreshOnly retry="60 10 600 +" interval=00:00:00:10 searchbase="dc=my,dc=domain" scope=sub schemachecking=on bindmethod=simple tls_reqcert=demand tls_cert=/etc/ssl/certs/ldap-cert.pem tls_cacert=/etc/ssl/certs/ldap-cert.pem tls_key=/etc/ldap/ssl/ldap-key.pem binddn="cn=syncrepluser..." credentials=******** I added the tls_key, tls_cacert, tls_reqcert parameter. The tls option are using the certificate and the key of the LDAP Provider. The last thing I don't understand is that the tls_key is needed. So I need to deploy the private key of the provider to each consumer. I though the certificate would be sufficient ?

I was saying, I would have kept the ldaps:// URI in your config file, and drop the start TLS bit, and seen whether or not that works. In either case, I would use the ldapsearch binary to test against your server, both with ldaps:// URIs, and with ldap:// URIs using the -ZZ or -ZZZ flags to ldapsearch. ldapsearch with ldap:/// and -ZZ(Z) will use startTLS. ldapsearch with ldaps:// will try an SSL connection to the LDAP server. This way, you can hopefully get more meaningful error messages. --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Engineer Zimbra, Inc -------------------- Zimbra :: the leader in open source messaging and collaboration
