Because fixing a problem at the root is more clever than doing it over
and over again after an upgrade Ubuntu to recent Debian sid status?
Anybody is free to spend his time and if he likes repeating the work to
always apply the same patch or whatever change which is needed it is
fine for me.  But for those few people who are to lazy to do this there
is the option to fix the problem in Debian and be done with it for the
next Ubuntu for from sid.

Ahh, and by the way: *I* care to some extend how other people spend their
time on a common project.  It's called education if I try to propagate
some experiences I have made.
 
Kind regards

Andreas.

I don't remember if I've tested with Squeeze specifically, but my
experience is that it works as long as the certificate Common Name
exactly matches the hostname you're connecting to.

In other words, if the certificate Common Name is "ldap", one has to
connect to the server using the hostname "ldap". I know that that worked
in lenny at least, I'll be very surprised if it doesn't in squeeze (but
at least in lenny ldapvi had a bug making it the only program not to
accept the certificate).

This said, one can make it possible to use both "ldap" and
"ldap.intern". Use e.g. "ldap.intern" as the Common Name, and put
"DNS:ldap" in the subjectAltName (google openssl subjectAltName for more
information).

Hope this helps,

John.

I suspect something changed between Lenny and Squeeze, as certificate
checking seem to have become stricter.

Sound like a better idea, as it do not force us to change all
instances of ldap to ldap.intern.  Testing it now.

Happy hacking,

Normally ftpmasters "ack" by letting it go through NEW :) - IOW, I dont really 
understand what you are waiting for - can you explain?

I'd really like to see this in squeeze, but this needs to happen really fast.

Sure. We all agree that collaboration is good.

I warmly welcome an Ubuntu developer helping package Skolelinux-RLP

Correct, but why should we care where her or he does his main open

I do not care where individuals do individual work.

I care here because topic of the thread is *collaborative* work.

Most likely due to still not fully completed jackd -> jack1/jack2

Perhaps what changed was simply host resolving - to more aggressively 
resolve FQDN instead of only hostname.
