Step Nine (Optional): Configure eGuide to Use SSL

  1. From a Web browser, open the Novell eGuide Administration utility.

  2. Click LDAP Data Sources, click Edit (for the appropriate directory), then click LDAP Settings.

  3. Select Enable SSL.

  4. For Secure Port, type the LDAP server port number you made note of when configuring the LDAP server.

  5. Click Save.

    If you receive an error message or the machine hangs when you click Save, go through all of the SSL configuration steps again to make sure the configuration is completely correct. The following are two examples of bad settings that will cause eGuide to hang:

    • Trying to communicate with an SSL port using a plain-text connection
    • Trying to communicate with a plain-text port using an SSL connection
