Configure a Sun Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition as a Policy Store

To configure a Sun Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition as a policy store

1. For the LDAP server:
   • Enter the IP address of the LDAP directory host system.
   • Enter the port on which the directory server instance is listening.
   • Enter the root DN. Specify the root DN as the following:

     o=root_DN

     root_DN

     Specifies the root DN.

2. For the LDAP administrator:
   • Enter the user name (Bind DN) for the LDAP administrator account.

     Example: cn=Directory Manager

     Directory Manager

     Specifies the Bind DN SiteMinder uses to bind to the LDAP server.

   • Enter the password for the administrator DN account.
   • Confirm the password.
3. Specify if a different LDAP user account is to administer the policy store.

   Note: To select no user, enter a "," (comma).

   By default, SiteMinder uses the LDAP administrator account to administer the policy store. You have the option to have the policy store administered through a different LDAP user account. The complete DN for the user is required to configure SiteMinder this way.

   • If you accept the default go to the next step.
   • If you enter a number do the following:
     1. When prompted, Enter the DN of the LDAP user.
     2. Enter the password for the specified account.
     3. Confirm the password for the specified account.

     Example: uid=SMAdmin,ou=people,o=security.com.

4. Enter 1 to initialize a new 6.x policy store.

   Note: If you do not want to initialize a new policy store, enter a "," (comma).

5. For the SiteMinder super user password, complete the following:
   1. Enter a password for the SiteMinder super user account. The pre–defined SiteMinder super user account has maximum SiteMinder privileges. The password can be from 6 to 24 characters in length.

      Note: The password is not case–sensitive, except in cases where the password is stored in an Oracle policy store.

   2. Take note of the password. You use this password to log into the Policy Server User Interface for the first–time. You can change the password using the Policy Server Management Console.

      Note: For more information about the Policy Server Management Console, see the Policy Server Management Guide.

6. In the Pre–Configuration Summary, be sure that all settings are accurate and press Enter.

   The installation program begins copying files to your system. The installation can take a few minutes.

7. After the installation is complete, press Enter to exit the installer.

   Note: If you configured SNMP, restart the SNMP daemon by entering sh S76snmpdx stop and sh S76snmpdx start in /etc/rc3.d.

8. (Optional) Access the Policy Server User Interface.
