Fedora directory users - Dec 2009 - [389-users] What is addRSA.ldif?

HI All,

I am following the instruction on how to enable SSL via
http://www.directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Howto:SSL

One of the step mentioned to create "addRSA.ldif".  What exactly does
this
file do? and why it is necessary?

Thanks!

The file itself does nothing except give you a temporary place to store
the config entry that will enable RSA encryption on your server. Once
you''ve completed the ldapmodify step you can delete it.

oops, I missed your e-mail.
Thank you for your answer, Patrick.
