[389-users] Using sec-activate to enable SSL for admin server

[Grant Byers]

Hi,

I've mostly completed automated deployment of a 389ds cluster via Ansible. The final
piece of the puzzle is the enablement of SSL/TLS for the Admin server.  From what I
understand, I should be able to use the sec-activate tool to do this;

/usr/lib64/dirsrv/cgi-bin/sec-activate /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv on

What I can't figure out is how to authenticate. When I run this, it prompts me
repeatedly for Ënter Admin Server Administrator password:". I have tried both the
RootDN and ConfigDirectoryAdminPwd passwords, but neither seem to work.

Can anyone suggest what's going on here & how I might get past it?

Thanks,
Grant
