Master server configuration

Master server configuration

Security Directory Server supports a single read/write master LDAP server or multiple peer-to-peer read/write servers.
Sun Java™ System Directory Server supports multiple read/write LDAP servers. Security Verify Access treats the Sun Java System supplier server as the master server for configuration purposes. The active configuration lines in the ldap.conf file represent the parameters and values for this master LDAP server. You determine these values during Security Verify Access configuration. For example:
[ldap] enabled = yes host = outback port = 389 ssl-port = 636 max-search-size = 2048

Entity Description

enabled ISAM uses an LDAP user registry. Values are yes and no.

host The network name of the computer where the LDAP master server is located. This server is assumed to be a readwrite server with a preference of 5.

port The TCP listening port of the LDAP master server.

ssl-port The SSL listening port of the LDAP master server.

max-search-size The Security Verify Access limit for an LDAP client search of database items.
For example, a request for the Web Portal Manager to list users from the LDAP database might reach this limit.

We might change the LDAP database. For example, when we add a user account through the Web Portal Manager, ISAM uses the read/write (master) LDAP server.
