SSL Options

You can use the following options to specify that
communicating with your Directory Server. You also use these options if you
want to use certificate-based authentication. These options are valid only when
LDAPS has been turned on and configured for your Directory Server. For more
information on certificate-based authentication and how to create a certificate
database for use with LDAP clients, see Chapter 11, "Managing SSL" in the
Netscape Directory Server Administrator's Guide.
Make sure that you specify your Directory Server's encrypted port when you
use these options:
240 Netscape Directory Server Configuration, Command, and File Reference • December 2003
Description
Specifies that the password policy request control be not sent with the bind
request.
(This option is new in the 6.2 release of Directory Server, which supports
fine-grained password policy. For details, see Netscape Directory Server
Deployment Guide.)
By default, the new LDAP password policy request control is sent with
bind requests. The ldapdelete tool can parse and display information
from the response control if it is returned by a server; that is, the tool will
print an appropriate error or warning message when a server sends the
password policy response control with appropriate value.
The criticality of the request control is set to false to ensure that all LDAPv3
servers that do not understand the control can ignore it.
To suppress sending of the request control with the bind request, include -g
on the command line.
Specifies the name of the host on which the server is running. For example, -h
cyclops. The default is localhost.
Specifies the port number that the server uses. Default is 389. If -Z is used, the
default is 636.
Specifies the password associated with the distinguished name specified in the
-D option. For example, -w mypassword. The default is "", or anonymous.If
you do not specify a password on the command line, and the server requires
one, the command will prompt you to provide one. It is more secure not to
provide a password on the command line so that it does not show up in clear
text in a listing of commands.
Specifies the dn of the entry to delete.
