## Object Store Properties

Use this dialog to add, delete, or update the properties of an object store you have already added to the navigational pane of the administrative console. To edit the fields of this dialog, you must disconnect the administration console from the object store and then display the dialog again.

JNDI Naming Service Properties: Use the controls in this area to define the list of JNDI properties for this object store. Use the Name drop down list to select a property name. After selecting the property name, use the Value field to enter the property value.

See `http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/1.2/javadoc/` for information about the JNDI application programming interface. You are required to set the `java.naming.factory.initial and java.naming.provider.url` properties.

The initial context property (`java.naming.factory.initial`) can have two values:

- File system store: `com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory`
- LDAP server: `com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory`

You are also required to specify authentication information. However, if you are concerned about security, you can wait to be prompted for this information at connect time.

- After specifying the property name and value, click the Add button to add the property to the table.
- To delete an existing property, select the property in the table, and click the Delete button to delete that property.
- Use the Clear button to clear all entries.
- Select an entry, change its value, and use the Change button to reconfigure that property.
- Use the OK button to commit all property settings.

To reconnect to the object store after reconfiguring it: Select the object store in the navigational pane and choose Actions > Connect to Object Store.
