ILO LDAP authentication with Windows2003

I'm trying to configure ILO to authenticate against Active directory of Windows2003. It seems I have a problem during SSL secure channel negotiation.

Does anyone know if ILO does also support Windows2003? It seems that Windows2003 uses TLS instead of SSL. I also rwad something about installing a certificate. Do I have to install a certificate on de Windows2003 DC in order to get LDAP over SSL to work?

I have iLO LDAP working just fine in a pure 2003 environment. The DC must have a certificate to communiate on port 636 (LDAP over SSL). I would suggest you install the Microsoft CA.

Try using the iLO directory tests. There is a link from the Directory Settings page. The tests will confirm if the problem is related to SSL if the certificate is bad or SSL cannot be negotiated.

This issue is solved. For me it is strange that a CA should be installed before LDAP over SSL can be used. I think Microsoft should support self-signed or third-party certificates.

Thanks for you help!
