LDAPS

[Bill Felling]

As part of getting 1.6.1 running, I've been trying to figure out of
OpenNMS can monitor ldap servers using ssl via port 636.  I managed to
find one tantalizing message from about a year ago, from Timothy
Nowaczyk implying that he was developing such a monitor - or extending
the exiting ldap monitor to include options for ldaps.  Does anyone know
whether this work was ever completed, and if so how I can take advantage
of it?  

thanks
Bill Felling

The openNMS LdapMonitor uses the Novell JLDAP library, which appears  
to support both SSL sockets and STARTTLS on regular sockets.  LDAPS on  
tcp/636 would be straight SSL.  So there's certainly hope.

I vaguely remember that thread, but don't recall any specifics.  Can  
you link to the post you found?

The last code changes to the LdapMonitor were made on 01 Nov 2007 and  
were part of a broader effort to add a notion of strict timeouts.

Bill,

I had it working, but my priorities shifted as budgets got cut, so I never
got around to submitting my patch.  I'll track it down and let you hack at
it.

Tim, if you have time could you create a Bugzilla enhancement bug?

We'll need an executed Contributor Agreement (http://www.opennms.org/index.php/Contributor_Agreement 
) in order to accept the contribution.  If you're unable or unwilling  
to execute that agreement, please hold off posting patches and instead  
describe in general terms what you needed to do go get it working.

Thanks

I've found the LDAPS code, but the authorization for me to sign your
agreement is held up a little bit.  I should have the signed agreement to
you all after the holidays.

Cheers,
Tim

Any luck on this?  I know you guys are working on a lot of stuff for
release 7 - think you could find time for this anywhere?
