Hello,

I have been setting up SSL/TLS with 389 DS on CentOS 6.4. I have been able to get it working and can connect with LDAPS. However when I started to disabled some of the ciphers I noticed that my server wasn't accepting any of the DHE ciphers. I enabled all the ciphers with +all and used sslmap to confirm that the server was only choosing RSA.

I checked the logs and the only thing they say is "Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s)."

Any help getting the DHE ciphers to work or pointing me to some documentation would be appreciated.

Can you please provide the exact steps to reproduce the issue?  Please include the versions of the nspr, nss, openldap, and 389-ds-base packages.
Have you tried openssl s_client?



Thanks,

Darcy

Here is my encryption settings.

I installed everything via Yum and only added the encryption settings and "nsslapd-security: on" after going through the setup-ds script.

When I run openssl s_client -connect localhost:636 it connects fine with AES256-SHA


When I specify a cipher it fails the handshake.

root@ldap01 ~]# openssl s_client -connect localhost:636 -cipher DHE-DSS-AES128-SHA
CONNECTED(00000003)

I checked on the redhat site and DHE-DSS-AES128-SHA should be included (tls_dhe_dss_aes_128_sha).
