I've been tasked with something that seems impossible/unsupported.
VMware View Server uses port 389 for LDAP. My task is to make View use port 636 instead (LDAP over SSL). The charge is that the replicated VMware View servers are passing non-encrypted data between each other on port 389.
So far in my quest, I've made no progress in making this happen. I was however able to test that manual connections can now be made (with ADSI Edit) with port SSL port 636 to other replicated View servers. Problem is that View seems to have hard coded to use port 389 and can't be switched over to use LDAPS.
There are instructions for doing something like this in vCenter (http://www.vstable.com/2012/01/27/vcenter-5-active-directory-web-services-error-1209/) (Virtual Security Lab: Architecture - Blog - proSauce), but nothing related to View surfaces in a Google search.
Anyone have a yea or neigh if this can be done?
