Hi all,

I've established a new LDAP server and am testing the SSL/TLS connection 
to it.  I noticed that on the client machine, I need to run authconfig 
after putting the CA certificate for the LDAP server in 
/etc/openldap/cacerts.

If I don't do this, ldapsearch fails on the connection.  I've looking 
for authconfig does to detect the new certificate file but do not see 
any obvious service or comand I can run.  It looks like this has to be a 
manual process.  Is there a flag or something I am missing to make the 
detection of the new CA certficate automatic?  I would like to script 
the update for all my machines.

Ryan
