Configuring the LDAP-UX Client
If you attempt to enable SSL support with LDAP-UX, you must configure
the LDAP directory server to support SSL and install the security
databases (cert7.db or cert8.db and key3.db) on your client before you
run the setup program. For SSL setup details, refer to LDAP-UX Client
Services Administrator’s Guide or LDAP-UX Client Services with
Microsoft Windows 2000/2003 Active Directory Administrator’s Guide.
If your browser does not generate cert7.db or cert8.db and key3.db
security database files, you must export the certificate (preferably the
root certificate of the Certificate Authority that signed the LDAP server’s
certificate) from your certificate server as a Base64-Encoded certificate
and use the certutil utility to create the cert8.db and key3.db
security database files.
Use the following steps to create the security database files:
Step 1. Retrieve the Base64-Encoded certificate from the certificate server and
save it.
For example, get the Base64-Encoded certificate from the certificate
server and save it as the /tmp/mynew.cert file. This file should look
like:
--------------- BEGIN CERTIFICATE -------------------------------
