Using LDAP backend with start_tls
Hi everyone,
I was wondering how can I use the LDAP backend over a TLS connection.
Looking at the krb5.conf file man page, looks like there is no option
covering this and I'm assuming that simply using ldaps:// as the
ldap_servers URI will toggle SSL over port 636 instead of TLS at port
389.
ldapi://socket will initiate a unix socket connection
ldap://host will start an unsecured connection at port 389
ldaps://host will start SSL through port 636
Is there a way to START_TLS over port 389?
Thanks,
-Klaus

Hi,
I have this setup with Heimdal and Openldap and iirc I checked the
source code and TLS was -not- used at all there :/
I did not care much since I use the same server for both, but this is
disturbing ...
writing a patch for this in Heimdal should be pretty straight forward I
guess.
Cheers,
Mik
