Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 Configuration, Command, and File Reference
Option Description
certificate-based client authentication. For
example:
-N Server-Cert
If this option is specified, then the -Z and -W
options are required. Also, if this option is
specified, then the -D and -w options must not
be specified, or certificate-based
authentication will not occur, and the bind
operation will use the authentication
credentials specified on -D and -w.
-P
Specifies the absolute path, including the
filename, of the certificate database of the
client. This option is used only with the -Z
option.
When used on a machine where an
SSL-enabled web browser is configured, the
path specified on this option can be pointed to
the certificate database for the web browser.
For example:
-P /security/cert.db
The client security files can be stored on the
Directory Server in the
/etc/dirsrv/slapd-instance_name
directory. In this case, the -P option calls out
a path and filename similar to the following:
-P
/etc/dirsrv/slapd-instance_name/client-cert.db
-Q Specifies the token and certificate name,
which is separated by a semicolon (:) for
PKCS11.
-W Specifies the password for the certificate
database identified on the -P option. For
example:
-W serverpassword
