Installing And Configuring LDAP-UX Client Services

Configure the LDAP-UX Client Services

For example: disable_uid_range=0-100,300-450,89

Note:

White spaces between numbers are ignored.

Only one line of the list is accepted, however, the line can be wrapped.

The maximum number of ranges is 20.

Step 22. “Verify the LDAP-UX Client Services” on page 68.

Step 23. Configure subsequent clients by running setup on those clients and specifying an existing configuration profile. Or for a simpler process see “Configure Subsequent Client Systems” on page 72.

 

Custom Configuration

 

Running the Setup program for a quick configuration, as described

 

above, configures your client using default values where possible. If you

 

would like to customize these parameters, proceed as follows.

 

If you want to use SSL, you must have the certificate database files,

 

cert7.db or cert8.db and key3.db, on your client system before you run the

 

custom configuration. See “Configure the LDAP-UX Client Serivces with

 

SSL Support” on page 41 for details.

Step

1. Perform the steps described in “Quick Configuration” on page 29.

 

However, after step 11, You will be asked whether you want to use SSL

 

or not. Enter “yes” to use SSL for the secure communication between

 

LDAP clients and the Netscape Directory Server. Enter “no” if you don’t

 

want to use SSL.

Step

2. Next, it will prompt you for selecting the authentication method for users

 

to bind/authenticate to the server.

 

You have a choice between SIMPLE (the default), or SASL DIGEST-MD5

 

if you choose to not enable SSL. However, you have a choice between

 

SIMPLE with SSL (the default), or SASL DIGEST-MD5 with SSL if you

 

choose to enable SSL.

 

If you select SASL DIGEST-MD5, two additional prompts will appear.

 

The first will prompt you for a user mapping (UID, DN, or Other). The

 

second will prompt you for a single realm to use when retrieving user

 

authentication information. If no realm is specified, user information will

 

be retrieved from the first realm the directory server offers.
