Configure IBM Directory Server for use with WebSphere Commerce

If you use IBM Directory Server, complete the steps on this page.

Before you begin

• Ensure that WebSphere Commerce is installed and configured.

• Verify the IBM Directory Server is installed according to the instructions provided by the provider.

Procedure

1. Add the following organization Relative Distinguished Name (RDN) to the top of the directory server:

   o=root organization

   If you choose to use an organization that does not have a parent DN, such as o=root organization, then first create a suffix for that organization, if it does not already exist.

   You can customize this name to match your settings. For example, you can use...

   dc=domain,dc=ibm,dc=com

   ...instead of o=root organization.

2. Add the following RDN as a child of the RDN created in step 1: o=default organization

   You can customize this name to match the own settings. For example, you can use...

   cn=users,dc=domain,dc=ibm,dc=com

   ...instead of...

   o=default organization,o=root organization

3. Restart the Directory Server.
