Description

I want to deploy ApacheDS for multiple users, and set some non-default preferences for them (e.g. don't verify server SSL certificates).
It would be perfect if I could do this in ApacheDS' directory itself (as this gets mounted on the machines of the users), so I don't have to set it on every single machine.

"sorry, but global preferences are not possible in the current version.
The eclipse framework defines a hierarchy of different preference
scopes (per configuration, per instance, default), I think that could
be used for your requirement, but this isn't used in Studio."
