HI,

 Instead of creating symbolic links u can create all certificates in one
directory and copy into the directory instance directory.For example copy
all certficates inito /etc/dirsrv/slapd-xxx/.If any file is already existing
it will ask u for overwrite  while copying tell yes to all.

Recently i implemented the user and pass sync from windows 2003 AD box.If
you have any query mail me back.


Regards
lingu
