28.5 Configuring iManager for LDAP SSL Connection to eDirectory

The pcProx and Secure Workstation plug-ins require secure LDAP access in order to store information into eDirectory or retrieve information from eDirectory. To set up secure LDAP access, you must import a root certificate from the eDirectory server into the keystore where iManager runs.

For details on importing a root certificate, visit the iManager 2.0 Documentation Web site.

The following table lists scenarios where you need to import a root certificate for Secure Workstation and pcProx plug-ins:
