|
| If you have anonymous access and you want to change to using a proxy |
|
| user, do the following: |
Step | 1. | Create the proxy user in the directory. With Netscape Directory Server, |
|
| you can use the Netscape Console. |
Step | 2. | Change the credentialLevel attribute in your profile to be “proxy” using |
|
| your directory administration tools, for example the Netscape Console. |
|
| If you want proxy access with anonymous access as a backup if proxy |
|
| access fails, change credentialLevel to be “proxy anonymous”. |
Step | 3. | Download the profile to the client. If you have an automated process to |
|
| download the profile, you can wait until it executes. Or you can download |
|
| the profile manually by running the following command: |
cd /opt/ldapux/config
./get_profile_entry
You can verify that the proxy user is configured with
display_profile_cache and ldap_proxy_config. display_profile_cache displays the current configuration profile, including the credential level, which is either “proxy,” “anonymous,” or “proxy anonymous.” ldap_proxy_config displays and verifies the proxy user the client is configured to use. See “The display_profile_cache Tool” on page 144, “The ldap_proxy_config Tool” on page 146, and “The get_profile_entry Tool” on page 145 for more information.
