Validating the LDAPS configuration

After completing the LDAPS TLS configuration, open a command shell in any machine with OpenSSL installed and run the following command for each Domain Controller.

openssl s_client -connect <DOMAIN-FQDN>:636 -showcerts

Where <DOMAIN-FQDN> is the Fully Qualified Domain Name of the Domain Controller. For example:

openssl s_client -connect dc1.example.com:636 -showcerts 

If LDAPS is configured properly, this command will display the LDAPS certificate for the selected domain controller.
