Enable LDAP over SSL (LDAPS) for Microsoft Active Directory servers

Tip

Microsoft active directory servers by default provide LDAP connections over unencrypted connections (boo!).

The steps below will create a new self signed certificate appropriate for use with and thus enabling LDAPS for an AD server. Of course the "self-signed" portion of this guide can be swapped out with a real vendor purchased certificate if required.

Steps have been tested successfully with Windows Server 2012R2, but should work with Windows Server 2008 without modification. Requires a working OpenSSL install (ideally Linux/OSX) and (obviously) a Windows Active Directory server.

• Create root certificate

 * This script deletes duplicate images and imagerows from the database of which the images are not present in the filesystem.
 * It also removes images that are exact copies of another image for the same product.
 * And lastly, it looks for images that are on the filesystem but not in the database (orphaned images).
 * 
 * This script can most likely be optimized but since it'll probably only be run a few times, I can't be bothered.
 *
 * Place scripts in a folder named 'scripts' (or similar) in the Magento root.
