Description Viktor Ashirov 2019-07-26 07:30:51 UTC 
Document URL: 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_directory_server/10/html/administration_guide/using-based_client_authentication#authenticating_using_a_certificate

Section Number and Name: 
9.8.4. Authenticating Using a Certificate

Describe the issue: 
Document mention these environment variables:
LDAPTLS_CACERTFILE=/home/user_name/CA.crt
LDAPTLS_KEYFILE=/home/user_name/user.key
LDAPTLS_CERTFILE=/home/user_name/user.crt

But their names are incorrect, see man 5 ldap.conf

Suggestions for improvement: 
LDAPTLS_CACERT=/home/user_name/CA.crt
LDAPTLS_KEYF=/home/user_name/user.key
LDAPTLS_CERT=/home/user_name/user.crt

Additional information:
Comment 1 Marc Muehlfeld 2019-08-09 13:28:05 UTC 
There's a typo above in one of the variables above:
> Suggestions for improvement: 
> LDAPTLS_KEYF=/home/user_name/user.key

The correct variable name according to man 5 ldap.conf is:
LDAPTLS_KEY=/home/user_name/user.key
Comment 2 Marc Muehlfeld 2019-08-09 13:29:01 UTC 
I fixed the variables in the master an 10.4 branch.
