I have a project at work. The design document is rubbish but they want a Websphere app to have LDAPS integration.

We've been able to get LDAP working successfully but now they want to get the traffic encrypted.

We have an enterprise CA but I don't know what sort of certificate they need. I presume an SSL (web) cert but will the Websphere app (I understand its called Jazz or RAM) use web enrolment to pic it up or do we need to export a .cer file and import that into the app?

I only have a basic understanding of PKI and just don't know what to google? The IBM stuff would be helpful but if I at least know the windows side well then at least I've done my job but I did help a lot in getting the initial LDAP search working.

I understand that the DC's have the appropriate certs and I can use ldap.exe to perform an LDAPS bind from a windows box.

Anyone able to point me in the right direction? Much appreciated.
