Server Lookup

Replication Server uses the access information as an extension to the LDAP URL for server lookup.

Access information is taken from the libtcl.cfg file:

UNIX – $SYBASE/$SYBASE_OCS/config/libtcl.cfg
Windows – %SYBASE%\%SYBASE_OCS%\ini\libtcl.cfg

Replication Server uses LDAP for authenticating server names and connection properties. You can use LDAP services in place of an Replication Server interface file. The libtcl.cfg configuration file is used to search the server directory information. For example, Replication Server and Adaptive Server information.

You must edit the ldap32 entry under the DIRECTORY section in libtcl.cfg to include libsybdldap.so and libsybdldap64.so. Otherwise, Replication Server cannot connect to LDAP on 64-bit platforms. For example:

[DIRECTORY]
ldap32=libsybdldap.so ldap://sylvester:3389
/dc=Sybase,dc=com??one??bindname=cn=Manager,dc=Sybase,
dc=com??secret
ldap64=libsybdldap64.so ldap://sylvester:3389
/dc=Sybase,dc=com??one??bindname=cn=Manager,dc=Sybase,
dc=com??secret

To start the LDAP session with the dscp utility, enter:

open ldap32

Replication Server uses Open Client/Server libraries to connect to LDAP servers and Open Client/Server configurations and procedures to set up and maintain LDAP services. See the Replication Server Configuration Guide for your platform for directions on how to set up an LDAP directory. For detailed information about Open Client/Server LDAP support, see the Open Client Client-Library/C Reference Manual.
