Cert not recognized error

Post by BanditBBS »

OK, so the AD was setup using no security and they are now blocking that and forcing SSL.

Changed the AD setup to use SSL and installed the 2 certs but I get
Unable to authenticate: TLS error -8179:Peer's Certificate issuer is not recognized.
I then took a look at this: https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=524 and ran through it just to validate. It made no difference, still the same error. Here is the listing from the certs folder:

Code: Select all

[root@xxxxxxxx cacerts]# ll
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 apache apache 37 Dec  9 16:24 61b2740782c19.0 -> /etc/openldap/certs/61b2740782c19.pem
lrwxrwxrwx 1 apache apache 37 Dec  9 16:25 61b27444f274f.0 -> /etc/openldap/certs/61b27444f274f.pem

Hello @BanditBBS

Thanks for reaching out and wanted to find out if you verified the cert/cert chain?

Code: Select all

openssl verify -CAfile certificate-chain.pem certificate.pem
let us know how things look,

Code: Select all

[root@xxxxxxx cacerts]# openssl verify -CAfile /etc/openldap/certs/61b279fb0ea85.pem /etc/openldap/certs/61b279f022cfa.pem
/etc/openldap/certs/61b279f022cfa.pem: OK
So that seems to have verified OK, so not sure what the issue could be.
