sun one 5.1 encryption

I'm trying to manage bunlded Sun LDAP 5.1 with a console from a linux
client. Everything worked fine, until I selected "require client
authentication" in encryption tab of directory and administration servers.
I couldn't connect to it ever since. Thankfully I didn't follow that same
procedure with the replicating server and I can still login to that.
I see that the first machine still accepts login and e-mail routing
request, so not all is lost, but how can I recover it ? I suppose the
option I enabled actually meant requiring client certificates ??
if so, I need to either understand how to generate them for the console
and I disable that feature intil all is set for it's usage.
I spent countless hours looking for the right version of certutil, which
for some reason isn't shipped with the Directory, but a lot seems to
depend on it (!?), but the one I found works in Linux doens't support a
single argument described in Sun's docs.
My certs were generated in openssl.

Thank you all very much in advance.
