Greetings to everyone,
we want an authenticated secure channel b/w the client and the LDAP server,
however we don't have the certificate setup for the
client(no client side authentication) but just a DN and password for the
client to authenticate itself to the server. The LDAP server is setup
for the SSL connection.
So is it allowed/safe to initialize an SSL connection using:
ldapssl_client_init()
ldapssl_init()
and then use the simple authentication using:
ldap_simple_bind_s(DN/Password)
If this is allowed, does the DN/password of the client go over the
encrypted channel b/w the client and the server? And does all the
communication happen in encrypted form when this LDAP handle is used?
thanks for all your support.
Best Regards,
Bandi
