!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] often referred to as "Named Passwords" has an [OID] of [2.16.840.1.113719.1.14.4.1.59] and is an [AttributeType] on the [DirXML-Driver] and [DirXML-DriverSet].
The Named Passwords property page allows you to manage (add, edit, delete) named passwords for the selected driver. You can define named passwords on both drivers and driver sets.
[{$pagename}] let you store multiple [passwords] securely by referring to each [password] by a key, or name. When you refer to the [{$pagename}] in a driver policy, you use the name only, not the [password] value. Then, when the driver needs the password value to execute the policy, it requests the password value from the [DirXML Engine]. This method lets you avoid revealing the password value in the code for a driver policy.
The following example shows how a named password can be referenced in a driver policy on the Subscriber channel in XSLT:
{{{<xsl:value-of select="query:getNamedPassword($srcQueryProcessor,'mynamedpassword')" xmlns:query="http://www.novell.com/java/com.novell.nds.dirxml.driver.XdsQueryProcessor/>}}}
You can store and retrieve named passwords for any driver without making changes to the [DirXML Shim].
NOTE: A driver developer can also customize a driver to use [{$pagename}] in other ways, such as retrieving [{$pagename}] when the driver starts up, instead of requesting them from the Identity Manager engine each time they are needed.
