Configuring the Driver

This section gives you specific information for configuring the driver. This driver is unique among DirXML^® drivers because there will always be two drivers installed, with each driver in its own tree.

The Subscriber in the first tree communicates with the Publisher in the second tree, and the Subscriber in the second tree communicates with the Publisher in the first tree. Therefore, the setup steps for the driver must be performed for each driver in each tree.

To use the driver, you must have the Novell^® Certificate Server^TM running on each server that will host the driver. We recommend that you use the Certificate Authority from one of the trees containing the driver to issue the certificates used for SSL. If your tree does not have a Certificate Authority, you will need to create one. You can use an external Certificate Authority.

Use Novell iManager to complete the driver configuration and administration tasks such as configuring driver properties, rules and style sheets, filters, and security.

• Configuring Driver Object Properties
• Configuring the Publisher Channel Filter
• Configuring the Subscriber Channel Filter
• Configuring Rules on the Publisher Channel
• Configuring Secure Identity Manager Data Transfers
• Using Driver Object Passwords
