This optional parameter specifies to use direct TLS, often
called LDAPS, to connect to the LDAP server. This is an alternative for
upgrading to TLS with StartTLS operation. For more about StartTLS support,
see
Section 3.9.10. UseTLS.
Here is an
example of using
UseSSL
:
# Enable direct SSL/TLS (LDAPS)
UseSSL
A full SSL/TLS configuration requires setting the
certificate locations and possible other parameters.
# Enable direct SSL/TLS (LDAPS) and tell it where to find certificates
UseSSL
# Name of the client certificate file:
SSLCAClientCert %D/certificates/cert-clt.pem
# Name of the file containing the client private key
SSLCAClientKey %D/certificates/cert-clt.pem
# Only need to set one of the following
#SSLCAPath %D/cadirectory
SSLCAFile %D/certificates/demoCA/cacert.pem
Tip
All
certificates are required to be in PEM format.
Tip
If
both UseSSL
and UseTLS
are
specified, UseSSL
is prioritised.
