Request to add TLS to ldap

[jenningsloy318]

Hi,

Is there any plan to support ldaps, so connection between kibana and ldap server with encryption.

so make the connection more secure.

Hello,

I assumed that LDAPS would work just by configuring the ldaps:// protocol instead of ldap:// and probably setting up a truststore somehow.

The answer is probably here http://ldapjs.org/server.html

I would like so support it of course, this is however a low-priority project for now, because it's so expensive to maintain.

Hello,

But don't find any descripiton to config the ldap server CA certificate, is any thing missing here ?

Hello,

look for starttls on this page

• http://ldapjs.org/client.html

it requires some changes to the code, I don't have the time for this right now.
