Re: SSL for Ldap -- implementation help

Hi Rich,

1)The function code that i used :

char CERTDB[MAXFILENAMELEN] = "/opt/tibco/iprocess/libs/cert7.db";
if (ldapssl_client_init(CERTDB,NULL) < 0)
        {
                write_log("ERROR", "Client Initialisation for SSL
failed \n");
                pthread_mutex_unlock (&mutex_suvamod_c);
                return ER_SYSTEM;
        }

I tried,, directly giving the path to the DB when calling the function
& giving just the "path to the directory" containing cert7.db .
However the return value of the function is always 1.

2)I am using RHEL AE 4.0 on x86 platform.

3) I am now begining to feel that i may have packaged the libraries
incorrectly. Is there a dependency among the versions of Ldap c sdk,
NSS & NSPR libraries. I obtained the ldapc5.1.7.tar package and then
the nss-3.11.tar & nspr-4.6.tar extracted them and copied the
libraries & include files into the ldapc_sdk folders.
Is this approach correct ?
Can you give me the current stable & compatible versions of LdapCSDK,
nss & nspr sources that i need to get and package them correclty. I
went with the approach that i mentioned above because, when i try to
build/compile from the source code, i kept getting a lot of errors.

Can you please tell me, the versions that i need to obtain and the
build process, to get the libraries packaged properly.

4) Can i build my own certificate from the utility that you mentioned
and use that certificate? What is cert8.db, in the documentation for
the utility, the examples shows cert8.db. Do i need that or the
cert7.db is fine.
