Trying to implement AD integration with SSL

Attempting to change our AD integration from non secure to ssl to solve the Microsoft Channel binding issues. We are on XI version 5.7.4. I have the root cert installed, the sub cert installed and DC cert installed. When I enable SSL/TLS or STARTTLS my AD users are no longer able to sign on into Nagios. Alternatively as a test I tried to add an AD user with SSL/TLS and STARTTLS set and I get an "unable to authenticate: TLS error -8179:Peer's certificate issuer is not recognized.

I have successfully used these exact same certificates on other systems with no issues. What is needed here to fix this:

Here is what the certificates looked like with redacted host names:

This can be closed. I found another post that refrenced this:

Try adding this to your /etc/openldap/ldap.conf:

CODE: SELECT ALL
TLS_REQCERT allow


Then restart apache and try again:

CODE: SELECT ALL
service httpd restart


See if that allows it to work.


I did the same and it's now working for me.
