Patch 133 addresses a problem with the Brightmail® Control Center LDAP integration

11163
Component: control center
Synopsis: Clicking on Test Query causes LDAP exception modifying URLs
Platforms: all

If, before you added any LDAP servers, one or more of your test logins happened to match the authentication credentials of the default LDAP server in MySQL, the BCC would try to retrieve an LDAP connection from its internal pool. Because the pool was empty, an exception was thrown. This patch makes it so that the "test login" button creates a new connection for its own use with the credentials presented on the "edit LDAP server" page.

Installation Instructions:

    To install the patch, you must know the location of your current Brightmail Control Center Tomcat installation, $CATALINA_HOME. Please consult the Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam Version 6.0 Administration Guide for further information.
