RE: simple question



Hi Howard,

You proposed to set option for certificate file and key file before connection is established. I already did this. Issue that I found is "some" mismatch between global structure (initiated in ldap_initialize function, or, precisely it is getopts found in ldap_create and initiated with LDAP_INT_GLOBAL_OPT()) and ld_options structure that is member of LDAP (precisely, ld_options is member of ldap_common, which is the member of ldap structure). 
So, ld_options will contain all data that are set by set_options function. Unfortunately, deep in the call stack:

tlso_init() Line 148	C
tls_init(tls_impl * impl=0x08bfe650) Line 168	C
ldap_int_tls_start(ldap * ld=0x0b8ee610, ldap_conn * conn=0x02c0a400, ldap_url_desc * srv=0x0b935c08) Line 829	C
ldap_int_open_connection(ldap * ld=0x0b8ee610, ldap_conn * conn=0x02c0a400, ldap_url_desc * srv=0x0b935c08, int async=0) Line 448	C
ldap_new_connection(ldap * ld=0x0b8ee610, ldap_url_desc * * srvlist=0x0b8ffa88, int use_ldsb=1, int connect=1, ldapreqinfo * bind=0x00000000, int m_req=0, int m_res=0) Line 487	C
ldap_open_defconn(ldap * ld=0x0b8ee610) Line 42	C
ldap_send_initial_request(ldap * ld=0x0b8ee610, unsigned long msgtype=96, const char * dn=0x08cc05f7, berelement * ber=0x0b935b00, int msgid=1) Line 130	C
ldap_sasl_bind(ldap * ld=0x0b8ee610, const char * dn=0x08cc05f7, const char * mechanism=0x089c3b4c, berval * cred=0x00000000, ldapcontrol * * sctrls=0x00000000, ldapcontrol * * cctrls=0x00000000, int * msgidp=0x1428fe10) Line

when tls context is initiated, ldap options are again initiated with LDAP_INT_GLOBAL_OPT() which does not contain values set by set_option. 
Any clue here?

You must set all of the TLS options before contacting the remote server. In particular, you must set your certificate file and key file in advance.

This is already the default.

This is unnecessary, the server name will be parsed from the URL.
