I am using ldaps (on port 10636) support and followed the instruction ( http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/basic-ug/3.3-enabling-ssl.html) to create a keystore and was able to successfully connect to the LDAP server with ldaps.
However, when I am using ldp.exe to connect to my ldaps server, I end up with: ld = ldap_sslinit("127.0.0.1", 10636, 1); Error 0 = ldap_set_option(hLdap, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3); Error 81 = ldap_connect(hLdap, NULL); Server error: <empty> Error <0x51>: Fail to connect to 127.0.0.1 Yes, the certificate is not verified. How do I create/verify a self-signed certificate. All I have now is the keystore file "keyfile.ks" How do I generate the certificate so that I will be able to connect via ldp.exe? Can someone point me to the correct documentation? -- Ashwin kumar (http://ashwinkumar.me)
