problem with openldap 2.4.26.2.3... client will not work.

I have 12.1 milepost 5.
set up ldap.
Looks like I have the openldap server running, the ldap browser appears to recognize it.
Having trouble getting tls - ssl to work for the client software.
The setup is correct from all of the ldap.conf stuff I can see on the net. I get a handshake failure on starting up the client.
client works on standard ldap, tls/ssl is the problem.

So I looked at some documentation for the openssl software.
I got the idea to update the openssl to 10.0.0e package, but when I:
nightmare:/media/NoName # rpm -U -v openssl-1.0.0e-32-1.i586
error: Failed dependencies:
openssl = 1.0.0d is needed by (installed) libopenssl-devel-1.0.0d-32.1.i586
nightmare…

I have some other issues with openssl [see second post]

all current updates are on [fixed that today]
Am I really missing libopenssl-devel-1.0.0d-32.1.i586, and if so where can I get it?
any ideas on how I can get this problem resolved?

I am beginning to believe i am missing some important parts of openssl.
Unless there are some major differences between distributions [and there are some I know] specifically in the openssl package
I seem to be missing /usr/lib/openssl… stuff, one of these is called /engines, and appears to have some
major influence on security.

I did write to the openldap folks, they weren’t all that helpful.
If I get more information, put together a trace / documentation, I will probably copy you on the doc, and keep you updated on the outcome, it maybe Suse dependent if this openssl difficulty is the problem.

if at all possible please copy jctobin@po-box.esu.edu, I have too many mail locations already.

Sorry,

Real question is where is :
Am I really missing openssl = 1.0.0d?
It is listed as on in rpm [YAST2 gui].

if I :
nightmare:/media/noname # rpm -i -v openssl-1.0.0d-32.1.i586.rpm
Preparing packages for installation…
package openssl-1.0.0d-32.1.i586.rpm is already installed

if I:
nightmare:/media/noname # rpm -U -v openssl-1.0.0e-32.1.i586.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
openssl = 1.0.0d is needed by (installed) libopenssl-devel-1.0.0d-32.1.i586

What’s wrong?

please copy jtobin@po-box.esu.edu.

to start: it could be you have some unknown intermediate version of
12.1! [which version do you have? milestone 1, 2, 3, Beta 1?]

you do know (don’t you) that 12.1 has not yet been released…the only
two versions of openSUSE to get help with in this forum are 11.3 and
11.4, as those are the currently released and supported versions…

for TESTING (and reporting of bugs) there is currently a openSUSE 12.1
Beta 1 on the street, but, i doubt if it what you want…i think you
probably wanted the 11.4 at: http://software.opensuse.org/

but, if you are an experimental Linux software tester and want to
discuss the (apparent) bug you found (NOT ask how to fix it, or work
around it) then you should carry on that discussion in the
pre-release/beta forum here: http://tinyurl.com/2du7r4s
