RE: LDAPS

Helmut, try connecting with debugging on and see what is happening.  Also, try using ldapsearch in verbose mode.  It might give you good information about the connection as well.

Subject: LDAPS



Hi,

I ran Net::LDAP on 5 Servers, 2*OpenBSD, 3*FreeBSD. I'm using it to connect
to an MS Active Directory. Everything was fine, also connecting via LDAPS.

Now I switched the 2 OpenBSD computers to FreeBSD and I'm not able to
connect via LDAPS anymore. LDAP is fine.

The code is:

our $scheme = "ldap";
our $dnsDomain = "domain.tld";
$_conn = Net::LDAP->new($dnsDomain, scheme=>$scheme) or die "Couldn't
connect to '$scheme://$dnsDomain' for domain '$_dnsDomain' using searchbase
'$_searchbase'. $!!\n";
$_conn->bind($ldapBindUser, password=>$ldapBindPass) or die "Couldn't bind
to '$scheme://$dnsDomain' for domain '$_dnsDomain' using searchbase
'$_searchbase'. $!!\n";

If I switch to

our $scheme = "ldaps";

I get the error:

Couldn't connect to 'ldaps://domain.tld' for domain '' using searchbase
'CN=Partitions,CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=tld'. Invalid argument!

According to tcpdump there are no pakets transmitted at TCP 636.

But again, the 3 other FreeBSD machines do fine using LDAPS. What did I
miss?

Thanks, Helmut
