Hello Steve,

thanks for your kind response. I have created the certificate with
plain openssl commands:
# creation of private ca key
openssl genrsa -des3 -out ca.key 4096
# creation of the ca certificate
openssl req -new -x509 -days 3650 -key ca.key -out ca.crt
# creation of the certificate of the ldap-server, the cert for the
# acs was created the same way
openssl x509 -req -days 3650 -in ldap1.csr -CA ca.crt -CAkey ca.key -set_serial 
01 -out ldap1.crt

I assume, that I have to set some opton in the config file but I did not
find the infos anywhere.

TIA,
thomas
