Dear Michael, Thank you for your answer.
Now, I'm working on making the zope python interpreter to be able to connect
to the LDAP server (over SSL), using the example in Demo/initizalize.py.
However I got stuck in a different problem.
When trying to connect, I followed this sequence of commands (changing the
/path/to/my/CAcert and <server>:<port> sequences):
import sys,ldap
ldap.set_option(ldap.OPT_DEBUG_LEVEL,255)
ldapmodule_trace_level = 1
ldapmodule_trace_file = sys.stderr
ldap.set_option(ldap.OPT_X_TLS_CACERTFILE,'/path/to/my/CAcert')
l =
ldap.initialize('ldaps://<server>:<port>',trace_level=ldapmodule_trace_level,trace_file=ldapmodule_trace_file)
l.protocol_version=ldap.VERSION3
l.bind_s('','',ldap.AUTH_SIMPLE)
Here, I got the following message:
ldap.SERVER_DOWN: {'info': 'TLS: unable to get CN from peer certificate',
'desc' : "Can't contact LDAP server"}
Point is, the LDAP server certificate doesn't have the "Subject" field;
instead, it uses the "Subject Alternate Name" field in the V3 Extensions.
Can anyone help me?
Best regards,
Alberto
