Infrastructure Software

I have a correctly configured AD Login Authority (i.e. URL = ad://my.domain), AD users are successfully authenticating and am now attempting to configure SGD for secure connections to AD (i.e. enable "Use Certificates" in ArrayManager)

I have followed the "Creating the client certificate" section of: http://docs.sun.com/source/819-6255/secure_ldap.html and downloaded the certificate chain (file) from our Microsoft Certificate Server as per instructions (i.e. using Internet Explorer, selecting DER etc).

However, when I attempt to import the downloaded client certificate (as per the "Installing the client certificate" section) the command fails:

/opt/tarantella/bin/jre/bin/keytool -import -keystore /opt/tarantella/var/info/certs/sslkeystore -storepass "MYPASSWORD" -alias my-clientcert -keypass "MYPASSWORD" -file mycertfile.p7b

keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Input not an X.509 certificate

...of course this is because the certificate I downloaded from my Microsoft CA is in PKCS7 format and not the required X.509 format.

After a bit of messing about I did manage to convert the PKCS7 certificate into X.509 format (using openssl) and then import it but after I enable "Use Certificates" the AD users are not able to login. I have enabled LDAP signing on the Windows domain controller as per "Enabling LDAP signing for the domain". If I disable "Use Certificates" AD users are able to login again.


With "Use Certificates" disabled (i.e. unchecked) my jserver log reports the following with a successful AD user login:

This might mean LDAP users cannot log in.

Make sure the DNS server contains the Active Directory service
records for the forest. Make sure a Global Catalog server is available.

...and with "Use Certificates" enabled (i.e. checked), and after a 'tarantella restart', my jserver log reports the following with an unsuccessful AD user login:

I'd be very interested to hear from anyone who has managed to get this working or may have hints on how to troubleshoot.
