Guys,

you shouldn't have to do this.  This is what I have in my cert DB:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] alias]# ../shared/bin/certutil -L -d .
CA certificate                                               CTu,u,u
NJ-Server-Cert                                               u,u,u
NJ-admin-server-cert                                         u,u,u
NY-Server-Cert                                               u,u,u
NY-admin-server-cert                                         u,u,u

I then sent the cert8.db & key3.db over to the other server, setup the 
replication agreements back
& forth and voila!  Basically, I shoved all my certs in 1 DB and blasted that 
everywhere.

Now, for the floating IP.  If you've two nodes, node1 & node2 and a VIP, 
ldap.com and your outside
clients talk to ldap.com and your certs are signed with node1 & node2 then I'm 
guessing SSL
verification will fail.  You're trying to talk to ldap.com but your certs are 
signed with node1/2
-- no go.  For this end to end SSL to work, you'd need an SSL terminator IN 
FRONT of the FDS
servers, something that will impersonate ldap.com, return a cert for ldap.com 
and then turn around
and encrypt the traffic again, passing it to either node1 or node2.  A cute 
little problem is what
to do when the ssl proxy fails?  :)

The thing is like this.  What is the problem you are trying to solve?  Why have 
two FDS servers in
1 location?  Why have the virtual IP?  It really doesn't buy you a whole lot.  
Have 2 FDSs if you
insist but then list all of them in the clients' ldap.conf -- no problem.
