     <h1 class="title">Viewing the hostname in an SSL certificate</h1>
-    <p>stub page</p>
+    <p>The hostname in an SSL certificate used for LDAP must match the hostname entered in 
+the conf.php file (this is the SSL certificate actually installed on the LDAP server,
+not the CA certificate). If you have no control over making it match, you can just put
+an entry in /etc/hosts with the IP of the LDAP server and the hostname that is in
+the certificate. To view the hostname in the certificate, you need a file containing
+the certificate (mycert.pem is used in the example). Run the following command to see
+the hostname that is set in the certificate:</p>
+<pre>
+openssl x509 -in /tmp/mycert.pem -subject -noout
+</pre>
+
+<p>You should see something like:</p>
+<pre>
+subject= /OU=Domain Control Validated/CN=ldap.example.edu
+</pre>
+
+<p>The hostname is after the <strong>CN=</strong> part. So, <strong>ldap.example.edu</strong> is the hostname in
+this example.</p>
