Certificate authorities issue public/private key pairs and public key certificates.

The Host Server attribute contains the distinguished name of the NCP server that hosts the certificate authority service.

This attribute was added for NetWare 5. NDS 8 replaces this class with the pkiCA class.

For LDAP clients to access this class, the LDAP server must map this class to a name that contains no spaces or colons.
