Description gunter kreck 2005-07-28 00:22:55 UTC

When I use the <b>Gentoo Guide to OpenLDAP Authentication</b> and follow all in
this howto described steps to install the openLDAP Server I come to the
following command:

ldapsearch -D "cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=de" -W -d 255

this command prints out the following error:

TLS certificate verification: Error, self signed certificate
tls_write: want=7, written=7
  0000:  15 03 01 00 02 02 30                               ......0

You cannot use self-signed certificates, this is not a bug. Set up a proper CA,
then create the certificates to be used.
