Re: fedora and openldap




I'm posting all the information together in this e-mail, hope you can help me out, I'm quite desperate at this point.

Following your advise I tried to set TLS in my server and client.
I generated the certificates for both client and server (self signed) and sent the cacert file from the server to the clients.

I started the server like this:
/usr/local/libexec/slapd -u ldap -h ldaps://curri0.imppc.local:636 -f /usr/local/openldap-2.4.25/etc/openldap/slapd.conf -d 1

( I installed a newer version of openldap in my server as the RH6 uses an old one, I compiled it with tls and openssl)

From the client I do :
 ldapsearch -x -ZZ -d1 -h curri0.imppc.local:636
ldap_create
ldap_url_parse_ext(ldap://curri0.imppc.local:636)
ldap_extended_operation_s

ldap_start_tls: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)



And the server shows this:

slap_listener_activate(8):
>>> slap_listener(ldaps://curri0.imppc.local:636)
connection_get(12): got connid=1000
connection_read(12): checking for input on id=1000

connection_read(12): TLS accept failure error=-1 id=1000, closing
connection_close: conn=1000 sd=12



If I do this from the client or the server:

# openssl s_client -connect curri0.imppc.local:636 -showcerts

I get this on server:

I generated the certificates like this:
# generate CA
openssl genrsa 2048 > ca-key.pem
# create certificate
openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -days 1000 -key ca-key.pem > ca-cert.pem
openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -days 1000 -nodes -keyout server-key.pem > server-req.pem
# self sign the cert
openssl x509 -req -in server-req.pem -days 1000 -CA ca-cert.pem -CAkey ca-key.pem -set_serial 01 > server-cert.pem

#For the client:
# create cert
openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -days 1000 -nodes -keyout client-key.pem > client-req.pem
# sign cert
openssl x509 -req -in client-req.pem -days 1000 -CA ca-cert.pem -CAkey ca-key.pem -set_serial 01 > client-cert.pem

Here is my slapd.conf tls related

TLSCACertificateFile /usr/local/openldap-2.4.25/etc/openldap/imppccerts/ca-cert.pem TLSCertificateFile /usr/local/openldap-2.4.25/etc/openldap/imppccerts/server-cert.pem TLSCertificateKeyFile /usr/local/openldap-2.4.25/etc/openldap/imppccerts/server-key.pem

Am I missing something?

Thanks a lot in advance for any help, it is very appreciated.

At least i could see that the password exop option in the

so I think I can change it within the slapd.conf file.
Yes, and if you don't specify "password-hash" in slapd.conf, ssha is
used. It is the default.

do you suggest to use salt?
ssha use salt.

Thanks a lot for your help,

BTW
have you read rfc-3062 ?
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3062.html

If you configure your clients to use "password exop" you should be sure
that the clients use any kind of network protection, TLS or SSL.

TinyCA is a perl based GTK-GUI which may help you to generate certs and
keys.

Until you are ready to use TLS/SSL I sugggest that you let the client
encrypt the passwords local.
