Re: Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and eDirectory
I have been working on this subject for a few days now. The process is fairly straight forward but a bit tricky on some points.
If you follow the document you referred to on cool solutions you should be safe.
Be sure to authenticate in the Directory Utility as a user for the connection. (Under security in the LDAP connection)
The point I found problems at the setup I was working on is de CN of the certificate and the actual DNS configuration.
You need to have a certificate that has the common name set to the full DNS name of the LDAP server. Then you need to be able to contact the DNS server (by ping or something) on the machines you are working on. Do not try to fool the system by editing the hosts file, this won't work.
Hope this helps. Good luck!
