SECURITY
When setting up directory assistance for an LDAP directory, you can instruct a Lotus Domino server to use SSL when connecting to the LDAP directory server. This helps secure communications between the Lotus Domino server and the LDAP server. You should use SSL if a Lotus Domino server uses the remote LDAP directory to authenticate Internet clients, or to look up groups for database authorization.
When a Lotus Domino server uses SSL to connect to an LDAP directory server, both servers must have certificates trusted by the other. If this is not the case, you must add a trusted root certificate to the server's key ring file before your server can connect to the LDAP server.
