If the server fails to find a matching user name in the directory, it uses the
registration information to create a user entry for the new user and add
relevant attributes. The server also retrieves information required to
construct the subject name for the certificate.
If, for some reason, the directory to which the server binds for authenticating
the user ID and password is unavailable, the server returns an LDAP error
code and writes it to the log. When troubleshooting any authentication failures,
if you see a log entry with an LDAP error code, check the corresponding error
code at this URL:
A sample log entry with an LDAP error code is shown below:
28/Jun/1999:18:40:25 -0700] conn=0 op=7 RESULT err=32 tag=101
nentries=0 etime=0]
Next, the server subjects the certificate request to policy processing. For details,

see Chapter 18, "Setting Up Policies" of CMS Installation and Setup Guide.
If the request fails any of the configured policies, the server rejects the
request, logs an error message, and sends a rejection notification to the end
user. Note that if this happens, the user won't be able to reregister using
the same user name.
If the request passes all the configured policies, the server issues the end
user a certificate.
The end user gets the certificate, which, if the server is configured to do so,
is delivered to the email address specified in the request or in the directory;

Manager to send automated notifications, see section "Notifications of
Certificate Issuance to End Entities" in Chapter 16, "Setting Up Automated
Notifications" of CMS Installation and Setup Guide.
