[389-users] minssf and TLS cipher ordering

[Trevor Vaughan]

Hi All,

OS Version: CentOS 8
389-DS Version: 1.4.3.22 from EPEL

I have a server set up with minssf=256 and have been surprised that either
389-DS, or openssl, does not appear to be doing what I would consider a
logical TLS negotiation.

I had thought that the system would start with the strongest cipher and
then negotiate down to something that was acceptable.

Instead, I'm finding that I have to nail up the ciphers to something that
the 389-DS server both recognizes and is within the expected SSF.

Is this expected behavior or do I have something configured incorrectly?

Thanks,

Trevor
