After you have logged in to an Oracle Internet Directory or Oracle Virtual Directory server, you can use the navigation tabs to select other pages. The Oracle Directory Services Manager home pages for Oracle Internet Directory and Oracle Virtual Directory list version information about Oracle Directory Services Manager itself, as well as the directory and database. It also lists directly statistics. Logging Into the Directory Server from Oracle Directory Services Manager Using SSL If you are unfamiliar with SSL authentication modes, see SSL Authentication Modes on page 26-3. When you log in to the servers SSL port, you follow the procedure in Logging in to the Directory Server from Oracle Directory Services Manager on page 7-10, except that you specify the SSL port in Step 5 and do not deselect SSL Enabled in Step 6. After you click Connect in Step 9, you might be presented with a certificate, depending on the type of SSL authentication. SSL No Authentication If the directory server is using SSL No Authentication mode the default, you are not presented with a certificate. SSL No Authentication provides data confidentiality and integrity only but no authentication using X509 certificates. SSL Server Only Authentication If the directory server is using SSL Server Authentication Only Mode, when you click connect in Step 9, you are presented with the servers certificate. After manually verifying the authenticity of the server certificate, you can accept the certificate permanently, accept the certificate for the current session only, or reject the certificate. If you accept the certificate permanently, the certificate is stored in its Java Key Store JKS. From then on, you are not prompted to accept the certificate when you connect to that server. If you accept the certificate only for the current session, you are prompted to accept or reject the certificate every time you connect to the server. If you reject the certificate, ODSM closes the connection to the server. SSL Client and Server Authentication If the server is using SSL Client and Server Authentication Mode, when you click Connect in Step 9, you are presented with a certificate. Follow the instructions in SSL Server Only Authentication on page 7-11. After OSDM accepts the servers certificate, ODSM sends its own certificate to the server for authentication. The server accepts ODSMs certificate if that certificate is present in its trusted list of certificates. If the DN of ODSMs certificate is present in the server, you do not need to provide the username and password in the connection dialog. If the DN of ODSMs certificate is not present in the server, you must provide the user name and password. See Also: Troubleshooting Oracle Directory Services Manager on page R-30.
