I'm setting up a new OpenLDAP server on Ubuntu 12.04 with a copy of our current LDAP database. I've gotten most of the configuration down, I think, but I'm having trouble telling if the LDAP queries are encrypted or not. I suspect there may be a misconfiguration with the certificates, but I'm not sure how to tell.

Any suggestions or comments are greatly appreciated!

  1. Check your logs.
    (Or run the OpenLDAP clients in Verbose mode and they will tell you if they're using SSL.)

  2. Don't trust your logs/clients.
    (Run wireshark or something similar and verify the traffic.)
