#9258 Do not add TLS CA configuration to ldap.conf anymore
Closed: fixed by frenaud. Opened by abbra.

OpenLDAP made it explicit to use default CA store as provided by OpenSSL in 2016:

This means starting with OpenLDAP 2.4.45 we can drop the explicit CA configuration in dap.conf.

There are several use cases where an explicit IPA CA should be specified in the configuration. These mostly concern situations where a higher security level must be maintained. For these configurations an administrator would need to add an explicit CA configuration to ldap.conf if we wouldn't add it during the ipa-client-install setup. This is worth a release note.
