contain any space characters. If the directory that you specify does not exist, the setup program
creates it for you.
13. Choose All to install all components.
14. For the user and group to run the servers, enter the identity as whom you want this server to run.
For more information on the user and groups that you should use when running your servers,
see Section 1.2.3 Deciding the User and Group for Your Servers .
15. For configuration directory administrator ID and password, enter the name and password as
whom you will log in when you want to authenticate to the Console with full privileges (think
of this as the root or superuser identity for the Red Hat Console ).
The server is then unpackaged, minimally configured, and started. You are told on what host and port
number the server is listening:
•
The Directory Server is listening on port 389 (the default).
•
The server is configured to use the following suffixes:
dc=
your_machine’s_DNS_domain_name
If your machine is named
test.example.com
, then you will have the suffix
dc=example,dc=com
configured for this server.
o=NetscapeRoot
Do not modify the contents of the directory under the
o=NetscapeRoot
suffix. Either create
data under the first suffix or create a new suffix to be used for this purpose. For details on how to
create new suffixes for your Directory Server, see the Red Hat Directory Server Administration
Guide .
3.2. Installing on Solaris and HP-UX using a Typical Installation
Most first time installations of Directory Server can be performed using the
Typical
Installation
option of the setup program.
To perform a typical installation:
1. Log in as root.
2. Create a new directory:
mkdir ds
cd ds
3. If you have not already done so, download the product binaries file to the installation directory.
4. Unpack the product binaries file using the following command:
gunzip -dc filename .tar.gz | tar -xvof -
where
filename
corresponds to the product binaries that you want to unpack.
5. Run the setup program. You can find it in the directory in which you untarred or unzipped the
binary files. Issue the following command from the installation directory:
./setup
6. The setup program asks if you would like to proceed with the setup. Press [Enter] to respond
with the default (the default for this prompt is Yes ) or press N if you would like to exit the setup
program.
7. Next, the setup program asks you if you agree to the license terms. Press y to agree with the
license terms.
