In this article Janua’s CTO will share how to configuring SSL/TLS with DS389 aka RedHat DS

Step 1 – Create Keystore

Requirement

Position yourself in the directory

Cd /etc/dirsrv/slapd-myserver-5389

1.1) Creation of password files (pin.txt)

pin.txt (used by slapd)

echo « Internal (Software) Token:azerty1 » > pin.txt

Put correct permissions:

dirsrv dirsrv (chown)

400 (chmod)

This file is used at Directory startup

Note: Make sure pin.txt contains the password of your DB with the syntax as shown above

This part is detailed at:

• 9.4.1.5. Creating a Password File for Directory Server

Pin file (used by the db)

cat pin 
azerty1
1.2) Creation of the database

cd /etc/dirsrv/slapd-myserver-5389
certutil -N -d . -f pin

Please note that for the DB it is the file pin which is used.

Files created

drwxrwx— 3 dirsrv dirsrv 4096 21 déc. 15:51 .

drwxrwxr-x 12 root dirsrv 4096 17 déc. 09:01 ..

-rw-rw—- 1 dirsrv dirsrv 65536 17 déc. 09:01 cert8.db

-r–r—– 1 dirsrv dirsrv 1676 17 déc. 09:01 certmap.conf

-rw——- 1 dirsrv dirsrv 70814 21 déc. 15:51 dse.ldif

-rw——- 1 dirsrv dirsrv 70814 21 déc. 15:51 dse.ldif.bak

-rw——- 1 dirsrv root 50677 17 déc. 09:01 dse.ldif.startOK

-r–r—– 1 dirsrv dirsrv 35156 17 déc. 09:01 dse_original.ldif

-rw-rw—- 1 dirsrv dirsrv 16384 17 déc. 09:01 key3.db

drwxrwx— 2 dirsrv dirsrv 4096 21 déc. 14:47 schema

-rw-rw—- 1 dirsrv dirsrv 16384 17 déc. 09:01 secmod.db

-r–r—– 1 dirsrv dirsrv 15142 17 déc. 09:01 slapd-collations.conf

Step 2 – Check *.db files permissions and certificates

• Each db file needs to have

◦ 600 as access rights

◦ dirsrv (owner) and dirsrv (group)

[root@myserver slapd-myserver-5389]# chmod 600 *.db

[root@myserver slapd-myserver-5389]# ls -al *.db

-rw——- 1 dirsrv dirsrv 65536 17 déc. 09:01 cert8.db

-rw——- 1 dirsrv dirsrv 16384 17 déc. 09:01 key3.db

-rw——- 1 dirsrv dirsrv 16384 17 déc. 09:01 secmod.db

A check is preformed to verify that the certificate DB is empty

certutil -d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-myserver-5389/ -L

Database needs user init

Certificate Nickname Trust Attributes

SSL,S/MIME,JAR/XPI

Step3 – Generate self signed certificate

Redhat 10 DS documentation (chapter 15)

9.3.5. Generating and Installing a Self-signed Certificate

3.1) generating a random file

openssl rand -out /tmp/noise_5389.bin 4096

3.2) Generating Self Signed req and creation

certutil -S -x -d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-myserver-5389/ -z /tmp/noise_5389.bin -n « server-cert » -s « CN=myserver.example.com » -t « CT,C,C » -m $RANDOM –keyUsage digitalSignature,nonRepudiation,keyEncipherment,dataEncipherment -f pin

Generating key. This may take a few moments…

3.3) Verification of Certificate Database Content

certutil -d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-myserver-5389/ -L

Certificate Nickname Trust Attributes

SSL,S/MIME,JAR/XPI

server-cert CTu,Cu,Cu

3.4) Viewing server certificate details

certutil -d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-myserver-5389/ -L -n server-cert

ldapmodify -D « cn=Directory Manager » -w secret12 -p 5389 -h myserver.example.com -f m3.ldif

ldapmodify -D « cn=Directory Manager » -w secret12 -p 5389 -h myserver.example.com -f m1.ldif

modifying entry « cn=config »

ldapadd -D « cn=Directory Manager » -w secret12 -p 5389 -h myserver.example.com -f m2.ldif

adding new entry « cn=RSA,cn=encryption,cn=config »

ldapadd -D « cn=Directory Manager » -w secret12 -p 5389 -h myserver.example.com -f m3.ldif

modifying entry « cn=RSA,cn=encryption,cn=config »

Step 5 – Restarting Directory Server

Note:

The restart of the directory is automatic if you have correctly setup the pin.txt file in

/etc/dirsrv/slapd-myserver-5389 directory

If you see such a message, it means that the user has to enter the password manually, as the file pin.txt is wrongly configured.

Check also permission rights (dirsrv:dirsrv / 400)

# systemctl start dirsrv@myserver-5389

Enter PIN for Internal (Software) Token:

Step 6 – verifying LDAPS connection using openssl

Connection is done to test local ldaps port 5636

openssl s_client -connect localhost:5636

CONNECTED(00000003)

depth=0 CN = myserver.example.com

verify error:num=20:unable to get local issuer certificate

verify return:1

depth=0 CN = myserver.example.com

verify error:num=21:unable to verify the first certificate

verify return:1

Certificate chain

0 s:/CN=myserver.example.com

7.2) ldap.conf

/etc/openldap/ldap.conf

ldap_sasl_bind(SIMPLE): Can’t contact LDAP server (-1)

Step 10) Jexplorer

Manage Certificates and Keystores To use SSL in either form, you must manage a variety of certificates and private keys. These are kept in two Java keystores, which are password protected data stores. The first keystore, …//security/cacerts, with the password changeit, is used for storing the public certificates of trusted certificate authorities and servers. The second keystore, …//security/clientcerts, is used for storing the certificates and private keys of the JXplorer browser, and it has the password passphrase. Manage these keystores from the Security menu in JXplorer, where you can change the default keystore passwords. JXplorer uses the standard Java cryptography tools for its SSL support. These two files are standard Java keystores, which you can maintain using the Java keytool utility. This is a command line utility produced by Sun Microsystems. For more information, see keytool – Key and Certificate Management Tool ).

10.1) import de servert-cert.pem

servert-cert.pem is added to jexplorer (password changeit of truststore)

Configuring SSL/TLS with DS389 aka RedHat DS
10.2) Remote connection over SSL

It is possible to connect remotely over ssl after having imported the certificate in the jexplorer keystore

11) firewall manipulation
11.1) adding new port to the firewall to be bypassed

firewall-cmd –zone=public –add-port=5389/tcp –add-port=5636/tcp –permanent

success

firewall-cmd –reload

success

11.2) Starting and stopping the firewall

systemctl stop firewalld

systemctl start firewalld
