I have just setup SSL on my LDAP server by following this guide – http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/114087
I have made a self signed certificate using openSSL and set it up. When something tries to connect to the server using SSL it comes up with an error saying "The issuer of the certificate could not be found"
The common name is set to ldap.redmeetsblue.com.au which is pointing to our network, only port 636 is forwarded to the machine .
Ive looked over the internet but cannot find an answer, im pretty new to this so im stumped
Thanks in advance

you have to add the self-signed certificate as trusted to your client certificate store. This way the client will accept it and establish a connection.
