Creating a New Proxy User

Use the following steps to create a new proxy user and change your client systems to use the new proxy user.

Add the new proxy user to your directory with appropriate access controls.
Configure each client to use the new proxy user by running /opt/ldapux/config/ldap_proxy_config. Refer to the “Example” below.
Run /opt/ldapux/config/ldap_proxy_config -p to display the proxy user you just configured and confirm that it is correct.
Run /opt/ldapux/config/ldap_proxy_config -vto verify the proxy user is working.

Example

For example, the following command configures the local client to use a proxy user DN of CN=Proxy User, CN=Users, DC=cup, DC=hp, DC=com with a password of abcd1234:

cd /opt/ldapux/config 
./ldap_proxy_config -i
CN=Proxy User, CN=Users, DC=cup, DC=hp, DC=com 
abcd1234

The following command displays the current proxy user:

./ldap_proxy_config -p

PROXY DN: CN=Proxy User, CN=Users, DC=cup, DC=hp, DC=com
