To view the directory entry for User Two:
1.
Go to the Netscape Console main window, select the configuration directory
(
configdir
) in the navigation tree, and then click Open.
2.
Click the Directory tab.
The directory information trees are represented in the navigation tree on the
left.
3.
Open the entry for your domain (for example,
siroe.com
).
4.
Select the People node in the entry for your domain.
The right side of the window lists the People entries. (If you have followed the
examples, User Two will be the only entry.)
5.
Double-click the User Two entry to open the Edit Entry dialog box.
6.
Click Advanced at the bottom of the dialog box to see all of the attributes for
User Two in the Property Editor dialog box.
User Two has attributes for Email address, First name, etc., but no certificate.
7.
Click Cancel to close the Property Editor dialog box, but leave the Edit Entry
dialog box open if you can: you will open the Property Editor again after you
manually publish certificates.
To publish certificates to the directory manually:
1.
In a browser, go to the URL for the SSL agent port. For example:
https://myhost.mydomain.com:8100/
If you are asked to select a certificate for client authentication, be sure not to
choose the certificate for User Two since that user does not have administrative
privileges.
2.
Select Certificate Manager Agent Services.
3.
Select Update Directory Server from the list on the left.
4.
Check the first checkbox, labeled “Update everything in the database to the
directory,” then click Update Directory.
After a few seconds a results page displays. Most of the entries will indicate
failures because in this example you did not configure publishing rules for
most of the object types in the internal database.
The third item in the list should read “Valid certificates have been published in
the directory.” This means that publishing client certificates was successful.
