Neoview User Management and Security Administration Guide (R2.5)

Examples
The following command defines an openLDAP directory server called
NeoviewDirectoryServer, with a priority of 9. The command specifies the host, port, and
version. For all other parameters, values from the default configuration are substituted at runtime.
.sec create LDAP server NeoviewDirectoryServer 9,host 127.0.0.1, port
389, version 3
The following command defines an Active Directory Global Catalog server, to which the LDAP
daemon directs search requests (unless the configuration includes another server called
NeoviewDirectoryServer with a higher value of UsagePri):
.sec create ADGC server NeoviewDirectoryServer 100,host chi.lab.corp.net,
port 3268
The following command defines a directory server called NeoviewDirectoryServer, with a
priority of 9. The command includes a value for the host but not the port. In this case, NCI
prompts for the port and echoes the output to the screen:
.sec create server NeoviewDirectoryServer 9,host 1.2.3.4, port
Port: 636
Changing an Existing Directory Server Configuration
The Security Manager can use the HPDM Edit Directory Server dialog or the NCI ALTER SERVER
command to modify the configuration entry for an external directory server.
