Package com.sun.identity.security

Class ServerInstanceAction

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    PrivilegedAction
    public class ServerInstanceAction
extends Object
implements PrivilegedAction
    The class is used to perform privileged operations using AccessController.doPrivileged() when using com.iplanet.services.ldap.ServerInstance to obtain Admin passwords. Ths class implements the interface PrivilegedAction with a non-default constructor. This class should be used in order to perform the privileged operation of com.iplanet.services.ldap.ServerInstance.getPasswd(). 
     
 This line of code: String encStr =
 com.iplanet.services.ldap.ServerInstance.getPasswd(); should be replaced
 with: String encStr = (String) AccessController.doPrivileged( new
 ServerInstanceAction(svrInstance)); 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 OpenAM can be enabled
 by setting the property com.sun.identity.security.checkcaller to
 true in AMConfig properties file.
