I recall that we need to ensure TLS is enabled for secure connections, but I’m a bit uncertain about how to verify if ldapuser1 is properly added.

I think we had a similar question in our last mock exam about setting up LDAP with TLS. I should double-check the steps for downloading the CA certificate.

Okay, I've got a plan. First, I'll install the necessary packages like sssd and authconfig-gtk. Then I'll configure the LDAP settings, including the base DN and server URL. And don't forget to download and use the CA cert for the encrypted connection.

Wait, we're supposed to use a graphical interface for this? I was hoping for a nice, clean command-line solution. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to embrace my inner GUI wizard.
