Hi all,

I just wanted to know if it is possible not to store
the LDAP admin password into the servers/ldap.conf
file, and have the password asked only when it is
needed.

Today this is not possible because there are some functions which update the LDAP server in the background (e.g. if export-import.lib is used with automatic LDAP update).


Anycase, after the installation of OpenCA, that file
is world-readable. Maybe you want to restrict access,
as it contains a pwd ?

This is a security bug. I fixed it in openca_0_9_1 and CVS head. So it's time to publish 0.9.1.3.
