Modifying an existing Oracle Unified Directory Server connection

You can modify the various settings for an existing connection to a directory managed by Oracle Unified Directory Server, such as server computer to which the connection is established, communication port, access credentials, and the attributes used for naming objects in the directory.

Every object in a directory managed by Oracle Unified Directory Server has a naming attribute from which the object name is formed. When you create a connection to the directory, a default naming attribute is selected for each object type in that data system. You can view the default naming attribute currently selected for each object type in the directory and optionally specify a different naming attribute.

To modify connection settings

  1. In the Synchronization Service Administration Console, open the Connections tab.

  2. Click Connection settings below the existing Oracle Unified Directory connection you want to modify.

  3. On the Connection Settings tab, click an appropriate item to expand it and use the options it provides.

    You can expand the following items:

  1. Click Save.

Specify connection settings

This expandable item provides the following options that allow you to modify the connection settings:

  • Server. Type the fully qualified domain name of the computer running Oracle Unified Directory Server that manages the directory to which you want to connect.

  • Port. Type the number of the communication port used by Oracle Unified Directory Server.

  • Access Oracle Unified Directory Service using. Type the user name and password of the account with which you want to access Oracle Unified Directory Server. Ensure the account has sufficient permissions to perform the operations you want (Read, Write) on objects in the directory managed by Oracle Unified Directory Server.

  • Advanced. Click this button to specify a number of advanced options to access the directory managed by Oracle Unified Directory Server. For example, you can select an authentication method, configure TLS/SSL usage for the connection, and select whether or not you want to use paged search.

    From this Authentication method list, select one of the following methods:

    • Anonymous. Allows you to establish the connection without passing credentials.

    • Basic. Specifies to use basic authentication.

    • Microsoft Negotiate. Specifies to use Microsoft Negotiate authentication.

    • NTLM. Specifies to use Windows NT Challenge/Response authentication.

    • Digest. Specifies to use Digest Access authentication.

    • Sicily. Employs a negotiation mechanism (Sicily) to choose the Microsoft Network Authentication Service, Distributed Password Authentication, or NTLM method.

    • Distributed Password Authentication. Specifies to use DPA authentication.

    • Microsoft Network Authentication Service. Specifies to authenticate with Microsoft Network Authentication Service.

    • External. Specifies to use an external authentication method for the connection.

    • Kerberos. Specifies to use Kerberos authentication.

You can also use the following check boxes:

  • Use TLS/SSL. Allows you to use the TLS (SSL) encryption to establish and maintain the connection.

  • Switch to TLS/SSL after establishing connection. Establishes the connection without using the TLS (SSL) encryption. Then, after the connection has been established, enables the TLS (SSL) encryption.

  • Verify TLS/SSL certificate. Specifies whether or not to check the TLS (SSL) certificate on the server.

  • Use paged search. Specifies whether or not to use paged search for the connection. When selecting this check box, you can set a page size limit in the text box below.

  • Test Connection. Click this button to verify the specified connection settings.

Specify naming attributes

Every object in a directory managed by Oracle Unified Directory Server has a naming attribute from which the object name is formed. When you create a connection to the directory, a default naming attribute is selected for each object type in that data system. You can use the Specify Naming Attributes item to view the naming attribute currently selected for each object type in the directory and optionally specify a different naming attribute.

This expandable item provides following options:

  • Default naming attribute. Displays the default naming attribute set for the currently selected object type.
  • Add. Adds a new naming attribute for the selected object type.
  • Edit. Allows you to edit the name of the naming attribute currently specified for the selected object type.
  • Remove. Removes the currently selected entry from the list.

 

Working with an LDAP directory service

This section describes how to create or modify a connection to an LDAP directory service so that Synchronization Service could work with data in that data system.

To create a connection to an LDAP directory service, you need to use Synchronization Service in conjunction with a special connector called Generic LDAP Connector. This connector is included in the Synchronization Service package.

The Generic LDAP directory service Connector supports the following features:

 

Table 63:  Supported features

Feature

Supported

Bidirectional synchronization

Allows you to read and write data in the connected data system.

Yes

Delta processing mode

Allows you to process only the data that has changed in the connected data system since the last synchronization operation, thereby reducing the overall synchronization operation time.

No

Password synchronization

Allows you to synchronize user passwords from an Active Directory domain to the connected data system.

Yes

In this section:

For instructions on how to rename a connection, delete a connection, modify synchronization scope for a connection, or specify password synchronization settings for a connection, see Synchronization Service Administration Guide.
