Testimonial: Every year UMRA saves me thousands of hours in creating / deleting and moving of student accounts. I simply provide it with a list of students and it does the rest. I could not be easier. Ian MacRae The Hutchins School http://www.hutchins.tas.edu.au read more...

Importing the LDAP Server certificate

Finally, on the domain controller that runs Active Directory, you need to accept the certificate signed by the Certification Authority. From a command prompt, navigate to the directory that contains the certificate ldapcert.cer and issue the following command:

certreq -accept ldapcer.cer

The certificate is now installed. To verify the certificate installation, start the MMC and open the snap-in that manages the certificates on the local computer. In the tree, browse to the location Certificates (Local Computer), Personal, Certificates. A certificate issued to the domain controller should exist.

Figure 52: Verification of the purpose of the certificate.

Select the certificate and choose menu option Properties. The Certificate purposes should show Server Authentication.

To finish the configuration on the domain controller, restart the domain controller.
