Re: LDAPS on 2k3

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry


So, just to review:

The cert is really in the LOCAL MACHINE store "personal" container (not the Current User store)
The Windows UI says "this certificate has a private key" when you open the certificate
The Windows UI shows the certificate as "ok" and the path tab shows the full cert chain

I'm not sure what you are talking about with "trusted sites" as there is no container with that name that I'm aware of.

I'd take a look at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321051.
It details how to do it with a 3rd party or Microsoft CA

Actually, yes - the event log shows a Warning that "no appropriate
certificates could be found". I spent about 3 hours trying to google
that error, nd couldn't find anything other than "make sure the DNS name
matches the subject name", which I checked about 10 times, and "put the
cert in the trusted sites folder", which I did and still wasn't able to
talk LDAPS. I did see something about a DC certificate for client
authentication, but beyond a little blurb that I couldn't figure out I
saw nothing.

Sorry for sounding like an idiot here - I'm a linux guy by preference,
but I'm the only one in my group who can deal with Windows effectively
so I get thrown into the shark tank.
