I am using Mozilla LDAP JDK (4.17) with the following libraries:
JSS: 3.1.2.3
NSS: 3.3.4RTM
NSPR: 4.1.4RTM
The code snippet of how I am trying to connect securely to our LDAP server:
JSSSocketFactory.initialize("<certs db directory>");
LDAPConnection ldapConn = new LDAPConnection(new JSSSocketFactory());
ldapConn.connect(...);
The first line throws Error 80 (Unknown error) saying it can't initialize the security system. I believe the certs are valid because my C code works fine with the Mozilla SDK. I checked the documentation and I believe all my libraries are compatible with each other.
One thing that does worry me is that the documentation keeps saying that the LDAPSocketFactory and LDAPSocketFactoryExt classes can't do certificate-based authentication outside the browser. But I'm not sure this is a problem since JSSSocketFactory does all the handling of certficates and authentication for you using the JSS libraries.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...I've been scratching my head on this for awhile now, trying to get our Java apps to connect securely to our LDAP server.
Thanks, Mike
