Sun Java(TM) System Directory Server Online Help



Plug-Ins (General) Configuration

For security, Directory Server verifies that all plug-ins are signed by a trusted certificate. All standard plug-ins delivered with the server are signed and trusted.

Any custom plug-ins that you add to the server should also be trusted. This will allow you to detect any unsigned plug-ins attempting to run on the server. Use the following radio buttons according to your plug-in signing policy:

  • Do not verify plug-in signatures. This setting could allow unsigned plug-ins to run on your directory without your knowledge.

  • Flag plug-ins with invalid signatures. This setting allows you to detect unsigned or untrusted plug-ins.

  • Reject plug-ins with invalid signatures. This is the most secure configuration that ensures only trusted plug-ins are operating in your server.

Save. Click save to use the new plug-in policy the next time you restart the server.
