I am tasked with enabling an inbound LDAP over SSL connection over port 626 through our firewall from a service provider to one of our Active Directory domain controllers running Server 2008 R2 SP1 Standard in a single domain forest at Server 2008 R2 level.
I don't want to purchase a 3rd party enterprise certificate, just a certificate local to that server which will enable the inbound LDAP over SSL connection from the service provider's cloud server, but which does not cause any problems with user/computer authentication or srv record disruption within our own network as we want the default LDAP connectivity on port 3389 within our internal AD domain to continue to work transparently.
We simply want to facilitate the inbound LDAP over SSL connection without having any impact whatsoever with how that DC operates on our internal network.
Can you provide me with specific step-by-step guidance to accomplish these objectives?
