HI,

Instead of creating symbolic links u can create all certificates in one directory and copy into the directory instance directory.For example copy all certficates inito /etc/dirsrv/slapd-xxx/.If any file is already existing it will ask u for overwrite while copying tell yes to all.

Recently i implemented the user and pass sync from windows 2003 AD box.If you have any query mail me back.

Regards
lingu

Hi,
I'm trying to follow the documentation to setup synchronisation to
windows active directory.

2. Create a new cert8.db and key.db using certutil.exe on the Password
Sync machine.
certutil.exe -d . -N
ln -s slapd-serverID-cert8.db cert8.db
ln -s slapd-serverID-key3.db key3.db
[/quote]

If I execute that in a new directory:
# certutil.exe -d . -N
# ln -s slapd-rhds-cert8.db cert8.db
ln: creating symbolic link `cert8.db' to `slapd-rhds-cert8.db': File exists

I don't follow why the ln -s should be executed? Why not start with part 3:
On the Directory Server, export the server certificate using pk12util.
pk12util -d . -o servercert.pfx -n Server-Cert

Because SSL is already configured on this linux machine, so I guess I
can use the server-cert from that cert8.db?
Can someone clarify/confirm this? Thanks!
