Managing SSL
To provide secure communications over the network, Netscape Directory Server
(Directory Server) includes the LDAPS communications protocol. LDAPS is the
standard LDAP protocol, but it runs on top of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
This chapter describes how to use SSL with your Directory Server in the following
sections:
•
Introduction to SSL in the Directory Server (page 381)
•
Obtaining and Installing Server Certificates (page 383)
•
Activating SSL (page 387)
•
Setting Security Preferences (page 389)
•
Using Certificate-Based Authentication (page 391)
•
Configuring LDAP Clients to Use SSL (page 393)
Introduction to SSL in the Directory Server
You can use SSL to secure communications between LDAP clients and the
Directory Server, between Directory Servers that are bound by a replication
agreement or between a database link and a remote database. You can use SSL with
simple authentication (bind DN and password) or with certificate-based
authentication.
