Required Start-Up Information - Netscape MANAGEMENT SYSTEM 6.01 Installation And Setup Manual

Required Start-up Information

In the absence of
passowrd.conf
System, you will be prompted to enter the token logon or single sign-on password
you specified during installation. This password enables the Certificate
Management System to retrieve all the passwords required by the server to start.
These include the following:
• The bind password used by Certificate Management System to access and
update the internal database.
• The bind password used by Certificate Management System to access and
remove PINs from the authentication directory, if you've configured
Certificate Management System to remove PINs from the authentication
directory. (See the description for the
ldap.ldapauth.bindPWPrompt
module, which explained in the CMS Plug-Ins Guide).
• The bind password used by Certificate Management System to access and
create/modify user entries in the directory used for portal registration, if
you've configured Certificate Management System for portal enrollment. (See
the description for the
ldap.ldapauth.bindPWPrompt
module, which explained in the CMS Plug-Ins Guide).
• The bind password used by Certificate Management System to access and
update the LDAP directory; this is required only if you have configured
Certificate Management System for publishing certificates and CRLs to an
LDAP-compliant directory.
You first specified these passwords when you installed Certificate Management
System. Keep in mind that the passwords you provide for the tokens unlock a
combination of the following private keys:
• If a Certificate Manager is installed in the currently selected CMS instance, the
token password unlocks the private keys for the Certificate Manager's CA
signing and SSL server certificates. If the Certificate Manager's OCSP option
was enabled during installation, then the password also unlocks the private
key for the Certificate Manager's OCSP signing certificate.
• If a Registration Manager is installed in the currently selected CMS instance,
the token password unlocks the private keys for the Registration Manager's
signing and SSL server certificates.
