LdapCaCertPublisher Plug-in Module
The
LdapCaCertPublisher
plug-in module implements the CA certificate
publisher. This module enables you to configure a Certificate Manager to publish
or unpublish a certificate to the
caCertificate;binary
attribute of the mapped
directory entry; the mapper must locate the correct entry so the publisher can
publish the certificate to the specified attribute. The certificate is published as a
DER encoded binary blob.
The module also converts the object class of the CA’s entry to a
certificationAuthority
if it’s not one already. Similarly, it also removes the
certificationAuthority
object class on unpublish if the CA has no other
certificates.
You can use this module for publishing the CA certificate to the LDAP directory
only.
During installation, the Certificate Manager automatically creates an instance
(called a publisher) of the
LdapCaCertPublisher
module for publishing the CA
certificate to the directory. See “LdapCaCertPublisher Publisher” on page 273.
