When SSL-enabling the directory server, am I allowed to use a
wildcard certificate or is it mandatory the certificate include the
FQHN?
the certificate should always contain the FQDN but you can use the alternate extension
that allows you to specify multiple names.
this is what I use for my setups:
certutil -R -s "CN=domssm1.xxx.net,OU=aa,O=bb,L=cc,ST=dd,C=dd" -o
domssm1.csr -d . -a -8
domssm1.xxx.net,ldap.xxx.net,ldap-write.xxx.net
hope that helps,
