Use

For the SAP NetWeaver Application Server (AS) Java to trust the LDAP directory server, you must import the root certificate of the LDAP directory server into the keystore of trusted Certification Authorities of the AS Java.

Prerequisites

You have downloaded the root certificate of the LDAP directory server.

Note

For more information about how to download the root certificate, consult the documentation of the directory server vendor. Alternatively download the certificate using a Web browser as follows:

  1. Point your Web browser to the following URL: https://<LDAP_server_name>:<SSL_port_of_LDAP_server>

    A dialog box appears stating that the security certificate is issued by a company that you have not chosen to trust.

  2. Choose to view the certificate.
  3. Choose to view the certification path of the certificate.
  4. View and download the root certificate in the certification path.
Procedure

For each server process that is to support SSL to the LDAP directory:

  1. In the SAP NetWeaver Administrator (NWA), choose Configuration → Security Management → Key Storage.
  2. On the Content tab, select the TrustedCAs view.
  3. On the Entries tab, choose Import Entry.
  4. Enter data as required.
  5. Choose Import.

    The root certificate of the LDAP directory appears in the list of entries of the TrustedCAs view.
