GEN008000 - If using LDAP for auth or account info, certs used must be provided from DoD or an approved external PKI - 'tls_cert'

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

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