Configure LDAP on WebSphere Application Server so that
the appropriate lookup is performed on the LDAP server after reading
the client certificate.
About this task
The steps to perform this task differ depending on how
your LDAP server is configured. See the WebSphere Application Server
version 6.1 Information Center topic Lightweight Directory Access Protocol user registries for
guidance, keeping the following information in mind:
- Be sure to click Set as current before
clicking Apply or Save on
the Secure administration, applications, and infrastructure page.
- Whether you perform step 14, Optional: Select the SSL enabled
option if you want to use Secure Sockets Layer communications with
the LDAP server, depends on your LDAP configuration. If you have configured
your LDAP server to be accessible only through SSL, then step 14 is
necessary for WebSphere Application Server to communicate with the
LDAP server. Else, the communication occurs over the default non-SSL
LDAP port.
