Installation and Configuration Guide

Configure LDAPS
You can configure Connect Enterprise Server to encrypt communication to and from a secure LDAP server. Connect
Enterprise Server does not encrypt such communication by default.
Use the Java keytool utility to import the LDAP server’s certificate into the trust store of the Connect Enterprise
Server Java virtual machine (JVM). If the server certificate is in PEM (Privacy Enhanced Mail) format, the certificate
needs to be converted into DER-encoded or Base64-encoded format. (DER stands for Distinguished Encoding
Rules.)

Convert the certificate from PEM format to DER format
1
Install OpenSSL (if it is not installed yet).
Note: OpenSSL is a third-party toolkit you can download online.
2 Run the following command:
openssl x509 -in [original certificate filename and path].pem -out [target filename and path].der
Import an LDAP server certificate
1
Tocopy(export)theLDAPserver’scertificatefiletothecomputerhostingConnectEnterpriseServer,locatethe
trust store used for the server instance. For a default installation, the trust store is located here:
[root_install_dir]/appserv/win32/jre/lib/security/cacerts.
Note: [root_install_dir] refers to the root directory of your Connect Enterprise Server installation which is c:\breeze, by
default.
2 To import the LDAP server’s certificate into the trust store, open a command prompt to the trust store directory.
For a default installation, this is the [root_install_dir]/appserv/win32/jre/lib/security directory.
3 Enter the following command, which supplies the path (relative or fully qualified) to your LDAPS server’s certif-
icate file and the trust store file location:
[root_install_dir]/appserv/win32/jre/bin/keytool -import -alias
[nickname for cert] -file [cert filename and path] -keystore [trustStore filename and path] -storepass
[trustStore password]
The following is an example of a valid command:
keytool -import -alias ldapServerCert -file C:\Certs\ldapservercert.der -keystore cacerts -storepass
changeit
Note: The default trust store password is changeit. You should change this password to increase file security.
4 If the LDAPS server’s certificate was created by an unknown certificate authority (for example, a self-signed certif-
icate), you are prompted to verify the certificate’s information and confirm the import.
5 Restart Connect Enterprise Server.
