Hello there



I managed to set up a complete CA, distribute certs, send encrypted
emails, login to the web interface by using certs and move all the
certificates to my ldap-server.



Well done !



But: How can I use now the certificate, that are stored in the ldap
server?
How does a user A, who is using e.g. thunderbird and wants to write an
Email to user B, get the certificate B from the ldap-server?
What do I have to be aware of?



I am not sure about Thunderbird, but apps like Outlook and Acrobat can both talk LDAP to retrieve certificates.

It is a pretty simple task to make a web front end (using Perl::Net::LDAP)
to provide an interface to the directory.

Yess, thunderbird supports it.
It was due to some bad configuration. I had some old certificates with a bad BaseDN.
The BaseDN of the certificates was another one than the BaseDN of the CA and the Ldap.


Now, with new correct certs it works fine. (Thunderbird 1.0)

Cornelius
