2. Check the SSL port number also.

Design Time configuration Steps needed for LDAP Adapter

To make the adapter a design time connection with Novell Server through SSL channel, we need to make some keystore, for the same .pem or, der certificate file is needed.

Step1:
In case of Novell server installed to enable encrypted connection, there will be automatically created .pem certificates under the folder &ltNOVELL_HOME>\NDS\DIBFiles\CertServ\KMOCache (say : UwBTAEwAIABDAEUAUgBUAEkARgBJAEMAQQBUAEUARABOAFMA.pem)

Step2:
Convert this file to .der file. Command for the same is,
openssl.bat x509 -inform PEM -outform DER  -in <.pem file path with file name> -out cacert.der

Step3: To make the keystore
C:\tibco\jre\1.5.0\bin&gtkeytool -import -v -alias CAcert -file C:\tibco\adapter\a
dldap\5.4\tools\openssl\cacert.der -keystore C:\tibco\jre\1.5.0\lib\security\cacerts.

Step4: The above command will prompt you to enter the keystore password (eg: changeit), enter the same and trust the certificate when it ask to do the same.

Run Time configuration Steps needed for LDAP Adapter

Step1: Prepare the certificate database, command for the same is
certutil.bat -N -d C:\tibco\adapter\adldap\5.4\certificates

Step 2: Add the certificate to the security database, command for the same is
certutil.bat -A -n CAcert -t "CTP,," -i C:\tibco\adapter\adldap\5.4\tools\openssl\cacert.der –d C:\tibco\adapter\adldap\5.4\certificates

Step 3: List the certificate and check if the certificate has been added successfully using the below command and verify the certificate.
certutil.bat -L -d C:\tibco\adapter\adldap\5.4\certificates
