Preparing the Directory for Enterprise User Security

Oracle Database Advanced Security Administrator's Guide

Choose Finish if you are only registering a database. Choose Next if you want
to configure additional database features.
To cancel database registration:
If you must unregister a database from the directory, then use Database
Configuration Assistant and follow the same steps used for registering it, except
choose the unregister option. When you unregister a database from the directory,
Database Configuration Assistant performs the following configuration tasks:
■
Removes the database entry and subtree from the directory.
■
Sets the
LDAP_DIRECTORY_ACCESS
parameter to
NONE
.
■
Removes the database from its enterprise domain (if the user has sufficient
permissions).
■
Does not remove the database wallet. See
"Managing Wallets"
on page 8-9, to
use Oracle Wallet Manager to delete the wallet.
About the Database Wallet and Password
The database requires the wallet even if no
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is used to secure the connection between the database
and the directory. If SSL is used, then this wallet should be used to store the
database's digital PKI certificate.
The wallet password you enter when using Database Configuration Assistant to
register a database in the directory is the password to the wallet itself, and is not the
database's directory login credentials.
You can change this wallet password later by using Oracle Wallet Manager.
However, if you forget this wallet password, you must delete the database wallet
that was created, unregister the database from the directory, and reregister the
database in the directory so another database wallet can be generated.
Note:
Depending on user permissions, Database Configuration
Assistant may be unable to remove a database from its domain in
the directory. If it cannot, then use Enterprise Security Manager to
remove it from the enterprise domain.

passwords and, in general, to manage public key infrastructure
