 *
 * The class is used to perform privileged operations using

 * </code> when using
 * <code> com.iplanet.services.ldap.ServerInstance</code> to obtain Admin
 * passwords. Ths class implements the interface <code>
 * PrivilegedAction </code>
 * with a non-default constructor. This class should be used in order to perform

 * This line of code: String encStr =

 * with: String encStr = (String) AccessController.doPrivileged( new
 * ServerInstanceAction(svrInstance)); If this is not done and Java security
 * permissions check is enabled, then the operation will fail and return a null
 * everytime.
 *
 * Note: Java security permissions check for OpenAM can be enabled
 * by setting the property <code>com.sun.identity.security.checkcaller</code> to
 * true in AMConfig properties file.
