LDAP server crtificate validation failed

[suresh89]

Unable to login to ILO console with domain admin account, but can be logged in with local administrator account

Hi,

I hope you or the domain administrator has configured for login into iLO and using the proper format like:
username@domain
domain\username

Please go through the iLO guides for configuration, here is an example.

Thank You!

Hello,

Has this worked correctly on any iLO's in your environment?

Are you actually using the certificate from an LDAP server? There is no requirement for this in the iLO when setting up LDAP. It would be good to see where it is failing on the Security -> Directory -> Directory test page. If it is failing very early on (for instance connect using SSL) then there may be a certificate problem on the LDAP server, not on the iLO. The connection from the iLO to LDAP requires it to connect using a secure connection. If there is no certificate on the domain controller the iLO will fail to connect. If you have a linux host on the same network, you can also test this by issuing a command similar to the following to verify the certificate:

openssl s_client -connect <servername/IP_goes_here>:636

Please provide some more details from the test page where this is actually failing.

Regards
