7.1.1. Editing the setpin.conf Configuration File

The setpin tool can use a configuration file, setpin.conf, to store some of its required options. Before running setpin, modify this file to reflect the directory information, and set the setpin tool to use this file by doing the following:

  1. Open the setpin.conf file. 

    cd /usr/lib/rhpki/native-tools
vi setpin.conf

  2. Edit the directory parameters in the file to match the directory installation information. 

    #------- Enter the hostname of the LDAP server
host=localhost

#------- Enter the port number of the LDAP server
port=389

#------- Enter the DN of the Directory Manager user
binddn=CN=Directory Manager

#------- Enter the password for the Directory manager user
bindpw=

#    Comment-out to turn off schema modification
schemachange=yes

#    Enter the pin attribute name
attribute=pin

#    Enter the pin objectclass
objectclass=pinPerson

#    Enter the DN and password for the new pin manager user
pinmanager=cn=pinmanager,o=example.com
pinmanagerpwd=

#    Enter the base over which this user has the power
#    to remove pins
basedn=ou=people,o=example.com

## This line switches setpin into setup mode.
## Please do not change it.

  3. Run setpin, and set the option file to setpin.conf. 

    setpin optfile=/usr/lib/rhpki/native-tools/setpin.conf
