I am really struggling to get Fedora Directory Server
working using 
ADSync. I am confused on a lot of fronts, it would be fair
to say I am a 
newbie when it comes to SSH, CAs, and synchronizing anything
against 
Active Directory. So I am at a disadvantage to start with.

I have been using 
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:WindowsSy
nc for my 
instruction base as well as 
htt
p://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:SSL for
setting up FDS to 
use SSL.

Here are my steps so far:
 1) Install and setup FDS and create my directory server. So
far so good.
 2) Execute setupssl.sh from the Howto:SSL link above.
     * As far as I can tell this script automates everything
in "Basic 
Steps", so correct me if I am wrong, but I shouldn't
have to actually do 
any of them after running the script?
 3) Restart both my admin and directory servers.

After I have restarted my servers, it would seem to me that
FDS would be 
exclusively accessible over port 636. So I use an LDAP
Browser to 
verify, and it turns out that 389 is still available and the
other 
isn't. Why is this?

At this point I decide to move onto another step 
(http://directory.fedoraprojec
t.org/wiki/Howto:WindowsSync#Enabling_SSL_for_PassSync)

in the instructions and setup ADSync on the Active Directory
box. 
Install goes fine, though I am obviously unable to get it to
connect to 
the FDS yet.

I am able to create the cert8.db, but then hit a road block
again when I 
try to execute "pk12util -d . -P slapd-<instance>
-o servercert.p12 -n 
Server-Cert", and yes I swap <instance> for my
host name. I get this 
exception: "pk12util: find user certs from nickname
failed: security 
library: bad database.". Any idea?

I know this is a lot, but I would appreciate any help I can
get.

Thank you,
Dennis

Correct.

It should listen to both 389 and 636.  Check the error log,
do netstat 
-an | grep 636, and use ldapsearch instead of LDAP Browser
to verify.

I think you can skip this step.  But when you give the -P
argument, do 
not forget the trailing dash - the prefix (-P) is really
