GEN008000 - Certificates used to authenticate to the LDAP server must be provided from DoD-approved external PKI - 'client Key Label'

Information

LDAP can be used to provide user authentication and account information, which are vital to system security. Communication between an LDAP server and a host using LDAP requires authentication.

Solution

Create a key database with DoD PKI or DoD-approved certificate.

#gsk7cmd
OR
#ikeyman

Edit /etc/security/ldap/ldap.conf and add or edit the ldapsslkeyf setting to reference a file containing a client certificate issued by DoD PKI or a DoD-approved external PKI.
