Hello all, This is my first time posting to this list. I'd like to say thank you and great job to the developers and testers responsible for creating the directory API.
I would like know if X509 certificate based authentication with ssl is possible to achieve with the latest version of the directory API. In other systems, this is known as a "Strong" bind, or "Certificate Based Client Authentication". In this mode, the server requests that the client send a certificate to identify itself. Here is a (very old) example from the Netscape Java 4.0 SDK: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19957-01/816-6402-10/ssl.htm#2847694 I have spent the last week going through the available documentation and have been trying to experiment with various BindRequest and ConnectionConfig options. The SSL connection is working, but I have not been able to make any headway in certificate authentication between the client and server. If it is indeed possible to make a bind of this type, would someone mind sharing an example? I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, Mike M
