Publishers
Configuring Publishers for LDAP Publishing
The Certificate Manager creates, configures, and enables a set of publishers that are
associated with LDAP publishing as follows:
•
LdapCaCertPublisher
the LDAP directory.
•
LdapCrlPublisher
•
LdapDeltaCrlPublisher
•
LdapUserCertPublisher
the LDAP directory.
•
LdapCrossCertPairPublisher
LDAP directory.
The publishers are enabled and configured using the X.500 standard attributes for
storing certificates and CRLs. You do not need to modify the preconfigured
publishers.
See "Publisher Plug-in Module Reference," on page 630 for more information
about publishers.
