[Pkg-openldap-devel] problem with verifying server-certificate

[Torsten Becker]

Hello,

i have installed a Debian Testing System within a Linux-Vserver.
I have slapd 2.3.24-2 installed and configured.
With pyca I built a simple ca and created self signed root-certificate, 
server-certificate and certificate for the slapd server that was signed 
from serverCA.
I can do a simple Bind without errors. I can use slapd to authentificate 
users against it. If I try to use tls, I have the problem that with 
"tls_checkpeer yes" in pam_ldap.conf the
login hangs. If I set "tls_checkpeer no" I can set "ssl start_tls" and 
the login will end without errors.
The comandline-tools (ldapsearch) give me no errors if I use -ZZ as 
Parameters. The debuglog tells me that the certificate will be read from 
the server, when asked from the ldapsearch command.

I ran another Test with the commands "openssl s_client -connect 
slapd:389 -showcerts" and "openssl s_client -connect slapd:636 -showcerts".
The first command has the result:

slapd2:/etc/openldap# openssl s_client -connect slapd:389 -showcerts
CONNECTED(00000003)
4709:error:140790E5:SSL routines:SSL23_WRITE:ssl handshake 
failure:s23_lib.c:188:

The second command shows me the certificates of all CA's up to the self 
signed rootCA.

So I think I can use TLS, but I can not verify the certificate of the 
server via port 389. Have you hints or a solution for me to enable this 
feature? I will use the ability to verify the certificates of the 
clients in the future...but first this have to run. I searched the web 
for abaut 5 days now and can not find athing that gets me further..

Regards, Torsten Becker
