====== OpenLDAP with SSL ======

**LDAP Over SSL vs LDAP with STARTTLS**

  There are two ways to encrypt LDAP connections with SSL/TLS.

  Traditionally, LDAP connections that needed to be encrypted were handled on a separate port, typically 636. 
  The entire connection would be wrapped with SSL/TLS. This process, called LDAP over SSL, uses the ldaps:// 
  protocol. This method of encryption is now deprecated.

  STARTTLS is an alternative approach that is now the preferred method of encrypting an LDAP connection. 
  STARTTLS "upgrades" a non-encrypted connection by wrapping it with SSL/TLS after/during the connection 
  process. This allows unencrypted and encrypted connections to be handled by the same port. This guide will 
  utilize STARTTLS to encrypt connections.

===== Steps =====

This is not the proper way to create a certificate chain.
  1. create a certificate authority
  2. create a server certificate
  3. sign the server certificate with the CA
  4. extract the password from server certificate into a key

# The following extensions are used in an end certificate
# to clarify its purpose. Some CAs also use it to indicate
# the types of certificates they are purposed to sign.

# this sets the id-kp-serverAuth (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1) of 
# extended key usage.

# This sets the id-kp-clientAuth (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.2) of 
# extended key usage.

# Whether this key will be used to sign code. This sets the
# id-kp-codeSigning (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.3) of extended key usage
# extension.
#code_signing_key

# Whether this key will be used to sign OCSP data. This sets the
# id-kp-OCSPSigning (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.9) of extended key usage extension.
#ocsp_signing_key

# id-kp-timeStamping (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.8) of extended key usage extension.
