#18049 [Com]: LDAP over SSL (ldaps) not working

ID: 18049 Comment by: hkemale at hkem dot com Reported By: twerner at fh-bingen dot de Status: Closed Bug Type: LDAP related Operating System: Windows 2000 Advanced Server PHP Version: 4.2.1 Assigned To: edink New Comment: i use perl LDAPS() function verify => 'none' work fine but in php i can only use ldap:// instead of ldaps://. There is no error displayed. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-17 15:36:06] hsolano at zequel dot com It is not clear, if after version 4.2.1, ldap is being compiled with ssl support for Windows. I am trying to use 4.3.1 binaries to connect to Active Directory; ldap_connect('ldap://hostname') works fine but I am not able to bind with a ldaps://hostname connection. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-04 18:09:07] dhh at vt dot edu The error "TLS: error:14094418:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:tlsv1 alert unknown ca s3_pkt.c:964" in the SSL debug output is a red herring. PHP is not sending a client cert or doing anything with client certs. The problem here is PHP does not trust the server, as it does not have the LDAP server's public certificate. What you need to do is create the file "c:\OpenLDAP\sysconf\ldap.conf" with the single line "TLS_CACERT c:\path\to\server.cert" where server.cert is the cert of the LDAP directory to which you are trying to connect. With that in place, ldaps should work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-16 14:40:53] twerner at fh-bingen dot de It seems to work under certain circumstances as you can read in my previous post (12 Oct 5:35am). I tested it only with OpenLDAP-server, because I don't have access to an Novell Edirectory-Server at the moment. I will test it again in the future and post the results here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-14 17:38:11] edink@php.net Were you able to make it work? I'm asking since getting openldap libs to compile on windows with SSL support is a non-trivial task. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-12 10:42:43] twerner at fh-bingen dot de OK, since the dll is now compiled with ssl-support, PHP is not the problem any longer. Just one last question: Will the ssl-support for the win32-version be integrated in future php-releases? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
