In response to: ADLDS on SSL Error #2 -- No trusted certificate chain.
Posted on: 06/27/2013 02:11:26 PM

You gave the only information available in the internet on how to create certificates for ad lds.
It took me some time but I managed to do it in my windows 2008 server.

Just a few clarifications to others:

"ADLDS-TEST-MACHINE" in the examples should be "<your computer name>.<your domain name>"

don't use ldp in the begining because the error message is the same for both errors you described.

I had to do all the steps mentioned in the posts it's not enough to follow only the first post.

I think Java Jndi means an application based on java Jndi like Softerra. there is no application called Jndi.

I used Softerra and got the ADLDS on SSL Error #2 he decribes.

To solve it I had to export the CA root certificate and not the issued certificate. If anyone needs help you can ask me.

This is the scenario where the AD LDS server is runing correctly on SSL port but the client fails to establish the SSL connection.

Client application Ldp.exe:
ld = ldap_sslinit("ADLDS-TEST-MACHINE", 636, 1);
Error 0 = ldap_set_option(hLdap, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3);
Error 81 = ldap_connect(hLdap, NULL);
Server error: <empty>
Error <0x51>: Fail to connect to ADLDS-TEST-MACHINE.


Client application Java Jndi:
Root exception is javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: 
  java.security.cert.CertificateException: Untrusted Server Certificate Chain
  at com.sun.net.ssl.X509TrustManagerJavaxWrapper.checkServerTrusted(SSLSecurity.java:600)
  at com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.ClientHandshaker.serverCertificate(ClientHandshaker.java:1066)



Root Cause:
  • ADLDS running on self-signed certificate: you failed to get a copy of the public certificate and import into your client side's trusted store.
  • ADLDS running on CA-issued certificate: the CA is not well-known as its root certificate was not inside your trusted store yet.


    How to fix:
  • Export the certificate (if self-signed) or CA's root certificate(if CA-issued) into a portable file (no private key inside this file), let's say AdLdsCa.cer;
  • Copy file AdLdsCa.cer into client side computer;
  • Import file AdLdsCa.cer into JVM's trust store <JRE>/lib/security/cacerts for the target JAVA client application, or
  • Import file AdLdsCa.cer into computer's rust store MMC/Certificates(Local Computer)/Trusted Root Certification Authorities/Certificates for all Microsoft client applications, like Ldp.exe or Softerra Browser

    After fix, you should see message similar like this:
    ld = ldap_sslinit("ADLDS-TEST-MACHINE", 636, 1);
    Error 0 = ldap_set_option(hLdap, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3);
    Error 0 = ldap_connect(hLdap, NULL);
    Error 0 = ldap_get_option(hLdap,LDAP_OPT_SSL,(void*)&lv);
    Host supports SSL, SSL cipher strength = 128 bits
    Established connection to ADLDS-TEST-MACHINE.
    Retrieving base DSA information...
    Getting 1 entries:
    Dn: (RootDSE)
     ...
