Re: export client certificate CN?

I am trying to use mod_auth_ldap with apache2, and I am having trouble
figuring out how to generate a trusted Certificate Authority
certificate.  I tried using the Netscape certificate database file as
the apache docs suggest, but I'm still getting a complaint from LDAP
that "LDAP: ssl connections not supported".

Can I use openssl to make a DER_FILE or a BASE64_FILE?  Has anyone here
had experience getting this to work?

Thanks for your time.

Best,
Andrew

I am totally lost on this.  I appreciate any help

I am currently using mod_ssl to verify client certs.
are issued by trusted CAs (e.g. SSLVerifyClient
require), but then using username/password for
application identification/authorization, passing this
to Oracle via Tomcat using JAVA.  However, I'd like to
be able to use client certs. for I/A by exporting the
CN (or perhaps serial number) when verifying.  I have
tried to add "SSLOptions +ExportCertData", but I am
not sure where this data is being exported too!  This
seemed like the appropriate SSL Option to be able to
parse the cert data, but please correct me if I am
wrong.  Does anyone have any implementation
suggestions exporting the CN from client certs,
particularly for retrieving this information with
JAVA?
TIA!
