Class LDAPSSLSocketFactory

java.lang.Object
netscape.ldap.LDAPSSLSocketFactory
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, LDAPSocketFactory, LDAPSSLSocketFactoryExt

public class LDAPSSLSocketFactory extends Object implements LDAPSSLSocketFactoryExt, Serializable
Creates an SSL socket connection to an LDAP Server. This class implements the LDAPSSLSocketFactoryExt interface.

To construct an object of this class, you need to specify the name of a class that implements the javax.net.ssl.SSLSocket interface. If you do not specify a class name, the class netscape.net.SSLSocket is used by default. This class is included with Netscape Communicator 4.05 and up.

If you are using a Java VM that provides certificate database management (such as Netscape Communicator), you can authenticate your client to a secure LDAP server by using certificates.
