Hi Mark,
I am using certutil and a pin file, but that's only half of what's required. The
other half involves adding and/or amending entries in the local and adm bootstrap configs,
in the global config database (o=NetscapeRoot), and some apache config. The latter tasks
are simplified by using the console to enable SSL for the admin server (which does so by
calling the sec-activate cgi), but that is a manual step and doesn't lend itself well
to automation. I have played a little with hand editing these files with success, which I
can automate, but it's fickle. Any upstream change could potentially break that,
whereas calling the tool used by the admin server to configure itself would be a more
robust approach (IMO).
The official documentation only has the manual approach via the console. No good for
automation.

Hi,
I've mostly completed automated deployment of a 389ds cluster via Ansible. The final
piece of the puzzle is the enablement of SSL/TLS for the Admin server. From what I
understand, I should be able to use the sec-activate tool to do this;
/usr/lib64/dirsrv/cgi-bin/sec-activate /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv on
What I can't figure out is how to authenticate. When I run this, it prompts me
repeatedly for Ënter Admin Server Administrator password:". I have tried both the
RootDN and ConfigDirectoryAdminPwd passwords, but neither seem to work.
Can anyone suggest what's going on here & how I might get past it?
I have never used, or heard of anyone using, sec-activate to enable SSL in the admin
server. I suggest following the official documentation on setting this up using certutil
and a password/pin file:

HTH,
Mark
Thanks,
Grant
