I would suggest you to create an entry in the openca subtree that you use
to bind the openca user with. Your baseDN should be the subtree DN.

Let me know if this fixes the problem.

Hi

thank you very much John, I'll try the procedure you gave to me as soon
as I can.

I'd like to ask you a few things - they are design things, that is

1 - I read somewhere in openca that OpenSSL is case-sensitive, ... so
that DC= is different from dc=.
But OpenLDAP is not case-sensitive. So my question is: do I have to
rewrite all my object identifiers uppercase to have OpenCA working with
OpenLDAP because OpenSSL is case sensitive? So that I have to replace
everything uppercase, for example OU=Users,DC=acme,DC=local?

2 - I want to put everything is OpenCA under the subtree
cn=openca,ou=Certificates,ou=Services,dc=acme,dc=local and I use the DN
cn=openca,ou=Certificates,ou=Services,dc=acme,dc=local also to
authenticate against the LDAP server - but I noticed that I got an error
that says that bind DN and base DN conflicts. Is it true? Of course they
are the same, but do you know why I cannot build a subtree under my bind
DN? I use an ACL to allow just the bindDN itself to walk throught the
baseDN subtree - and I did the same with other services

Thank you for your help
