I've been trying for the last 2 days to setup SSL on FDS without any luck and little feedback. Following the Redhat Directory Server 8.0 Administration Guide, Chapter 11, I've tried to install a local certificate both through the console and at the command line using certutil.

What platform? What version of fedora ds? rpm -qi fedora-ds-base

From the console going through every step. In step 2 the DN is:

CN="ldap1.chip.org", OU="CHIP", O="Childrens Hospital Boston", L="Boston", ST="Massachusetts", C="US"

In step 3 I get:

Unable to convert DN to certificate name.

This is a known console problem - try omitting the double quotes - you should not need them

Using the certutil these commands worked:

certutil -N -d . -f pwdfile -P slapd-ldap1 certutil -S -n "CA certificate" -s "cn=Childrens Hospital Informatics Program, dc=chip, dc=org" -x -t "CT,," -m 1000 -v 120 -d . -k rsa -g 1024 -f pwdfile -P slapd-ldap1 certutil -S -n "Server-Cert" -s "cn=ldap1.chip.org,cn=DS1" -c "CA certificate" -t "u,u,u" -m 1001 -v 120 -d . -k rsa -g 1024 -f ./pwdfile -P slapd-ldap1 certutil -d . -L -n "CA certificate" -a > cacert.asc -P slapd-ldap1

Why are you specifying -P? You should not need to do that anymore. Where in the instructions does it say to do that?

Using the pk12util failed

pk12util -d . -o ldap1.p12 -n Server-Cert1 -w ./pwdfile.txt -k ./pwdfile.txt The error is: pk12util: find user certs from nickname failed: security library: bad database.

You are missing the -P

I've run these 2 programs multiple times and googled to no avail. Could anyone help with this?
