com.sun.identity.security
Class AdminDNAction

java.lang.Object
  com.sun.identity.security.AdminDNAction

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.security.PrivilegedAction

public class AdminDNAction

extends java.lang.Object

implements java.security.PrivilegedAction

The class is used to perform privileged operations using java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged() when using com.iplanet.am.util.AdminUtils to obtain Administrator DN. This class implements the interface java.security.PrivilegedAction with a non-default constructor. This class should be used in order to perform the privileged operation of com.iplanet.am.util.AdminUtils.getAdminDN().

  This line of code:
     String adminDN = com.iplanet.am.util.AdminUtils.getAdminDN();
 should be replaced with:
     String adminDN = (String) AccessController.doPrivileged(
          new AdminDNAction());
  If this is not done and Java security permissions check is enabled, then
 the operation will fail and return a null everytime.
 
 Note: Java security permissions check for Access Manager can be enabled by
 setting the property com.sun.identity.security.checkcaller to
 true in AMConfig properties file.
