Situation

The original shipping Access Manager 3 build had a time bombed evaluation build that customers could download and experiment with. The build was time bomed to expire on September 30 2007. No updated evaluation build is available at this time as the next evaluation build based on Access Manager 3 Support Pack 1 code is not available prior to the expiration date.

Resolution

Download and apply the nidp.jar file from ftp://ftp.novell.com/outgoing/nidp_eval.tar.gz

The extracted nidp.jar file will need to be copied to all active Access Manager devices. To locate the files to be updated, execute the following command and backup the existing nidp.jar files before overwriting them.

# find / -name nidp.jar

/var/opt/novell/tomcat4/webapps/roma/WEB-INF/lib/nidp.jar
/var/opt/novell/iManager/nps/WEB-INF/lib/nidp.jar

The files on the Identity Server should be in:

/opt/novell/nids/lib/webapp/WEB-INF/lib/nidp.jar

The files on the Linux Access Gateway will be in:

/opt/novell/nesp/lib/webapp/WEB-INF/lib/nidp.jar

The files on the NetWare Access Gateway will be in:

sys:\tomcat\4\webapps\nesp\web-inf\lib
