PDC config assistance needed
Hi all;
I have an existing Netscape Certificate Management server that I want to
use with the portal so I have been trying to configure iPS to
authenticate using PDC.According to the iPS admin manual, there are
two steps to configure PDC; adding the gateway to the PDC enabled list
and adding the AuthCert parameters to the platform.conf file.
I did both of those steps but I am not able to authenticate using a
certificate. When I connect with a user and browser that has a digital
certificate, I get a blank browser screen.
When I connect with a user and browser that is not configured with a
PDC, I get a dialog box that states "No User Certificate, The site has
requested client authentication, but you do not have a Personal
Certificate". Since I am getting this dialog box, I assume that the PDC
enabled gateway configuration is correct.
The following is the AuthCert contents from my platform.conf file:
iwtAuthCert-chkCertInLDAP=true
iwtAuthCert-chkCRL=false
iwtAuthCert-ldapFactory=com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory
iwtAuthCert-ldapProviderURL=ldap://localhost:389
iwtAuthCert-startSearchLoc=c=US
iwtAuthCert-securityType=simple
iwtAuthCert-principalUser=Portal User
iwtAuthCert-principalPasswd=password
iwtAuthCert-useSSL=no
iwtAuthCert-userProfileMapper=subject DN
iwtAuthCert-debug=false
iwtAuthCert-aliases=subject DN
Any configuration suggestions or steps to debug PDC would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks
Rick
