RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: 389-ds-base-1.3.7.5-23.el7_5
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Due to a restriction in Directory Server, administrators could only use RSA and Fortezza ciphers. As a consequence, certificates created with a different cipher, such as ECC certificates, were not supported. This update removes this restriction. As a result, administrators can now use certificates with all ciphers supported by the underlying Network Security Services (NSS) database when configuring TLS in Directory Server.

Comment 6 Viktor Ashirov 2018-06-13 18:12:20 UTC 
Build tested: 389-ds-base-1.3.7.5-23.el7_5.x86_64

On a previous version I see the following errors when EC certificate is present in the database:
[13/Jun/2018:14:00:19.929317384 -0400] - WARN - Security Initialization - SSL alert: ConfigSecureServer: Server key/certificate is bad for cert Ser
ver-Cert of family cn=RSA,cn=encryption,cn=config (Netscape Portable Runtime error -8187 - security library: invalid arguments.)

# ss -ntpl | grep ns-slapd

After upgrade to 389-ds-base-1.3.7.5-23 I don't see errors anymore and TLS is initialized:
[13/Jun/2018:14:01:24.264253891 -0400] - INFO - Security Initialization - slapd_ssl_init2 - Configured SSL version range: min: TLS1.0, max: TLS1.2
