Interface LDAPRebind
- public interface LDAPRebind
Specifies how to retrieve authentication information automatically
for referrals. If you have set up the search constraints (or the options
in the LDAPConnection
object) to use automatic referral,
you must define a class that implements this interface.
If no class implements this interface, clients that follow automatic
referrals are authenticated anonymously to subsequent LDAP servers.
The following example is a simple class that implements this interface.
Objects of the myLDAPRebind class check the host and port of the
referred LDAP server. If the host and port are "alway.mcom.com:389",
the directory manager's name and password are used to authenticate.
For all other LDAP servers, anonymous authentication is used.
public class myLDAPRebind implements netscape.ldap.LDAPRebind
{
private String myDN;
private String myPW;
private LDAPRebindAuth myRebindInfo;
public myLDAPRebind () {
myDN = "c=Directory Manager,o=Universal Exports,c=UK";
myPW = "alway4444";
}
public LDAPRebindAuth getRebindAuthentication( String host, int port ) {
if ( host.equalsIgnoreCase( "alway.mcom.com" ) && ( port == 389 ) ) {
myRebindInfo = new LDAPRebindAuth( myDN, myPW );
} else {
myRebindInfo = new LDAPRebindAuth( "", "" );
}
return myRebindInfo;
}
}
