Directory Server Authentication dialog box
The Directory Server Authentication dialog box enables you to set authentication credentials for the selected Oracle Context in the directory server.
Oracle Net Manager must be authenticated with the directory server to perform any directory server operations, such as viewing, adding, or modifying Oracle Net entries in the directory.
User
Enter an authorized user that has access to the directory.
If you want to add or modify entries, then enter a directory administrator user that has been given add and modify privileges in the form of a distinguished name (DN). c=US,o=EXAMPLE,ou=admin,cn=scott, for example, is the DN for an administrator named Scott.
Password
Enter the password for the user.
Note: If you want to simply view objects and the directory has been set up with "anonymous" privileges, then leave the User and Password fields blank.
By default, Oracle Net Manager tries to authenticate with the directory using one of the following methods:
-
Native Authentication: A Windows NT operating system user name and password is used.
-
Strong Authentication: A Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate is used.
