Chapter 3 Password Cache Utility 29

• Changing the password associated with an entry

• Deleting an entry in the cache

The sections that follow explain how you can accomplish the above mentioned

tasks.

Listing the Contents of the Password Cache

To list or view the contents of the password cache:

1. Open a command window.

2. Go to this directory: <server_root>/cert-<instance_id>

At the prompt, enter the command below, substituting the variables with

appropriate values:

PasswordCache <sso_password> -d <certificate/key db directory> -P

<certificate/key db prefix> list

For example, assume your single sign-on password is mySsoPwd,theCMS

instance name is

demoCA,andthehostnameiscmshost. The command would

look like this:

PasswordCache mySsoPwd -d /usr/netscape/servers/alias

-P cert-demoCA-cmshost- list

Adding a New Entry to the Password Cache

To add a new entry to the cache:

1. Open a command window.

2. Go to this directory: <server_root>/cert-<instance_id>

NOTE You must run the utility from the

<server_root>/cert-<instance_id> directory.

The server queries the password cache only during start up, and

restart the server from the command line. If you left any of the

passwords blank, the server will prompt y ou to enter that during

startup and from then on stores it in the password cache.
