To create certificate databases, you must use the administration server and the
Certificate Setup Wizard. For information on certificate databases, certificate
aliases, SSL, and obtaining a server certificate, see Managing Servers with Netscape
Console. For information on using SSL with your Directory Server, see Chapter 11,
“Managing SSL.”
Cloning a Directory Server
Once you have set up and configured your Directory Server, Netscape Console
offers a simple way of duplicating your configuration on another instance of the
Directory Server. This is a two-phase procedure:
• First, you must create a new instance of the Directory Server;
• Second, you must clone the configuration of your first Directory Server
instance and apply it to the new one.
Creating a New Directory Server Instance
1.
In the Netscape Console window, select then right click Server Group in the
navigation tree.
2.
From the pop-up menu, select Create Instance of > Directory Server.
The Create New Instance dialog box is displayed.
3.
Enter a unique identifier for the server in the Server Identifier field.
This name must not include the period (.) symbol.
4.
Enter the a port number for LDAP communications in the Network port field.
5.
Enter the suffix managed by this new instance of the directory in the base
suffix field.
6.
Enter a DN for the Directory Manager in the Root DN field.
For information on the role and privileges of the Directory Manager entry,
refer to “Configuring the Directory Manager,” on page 34.
NOTE
The configuration information that is duplicated during these
operations does not include the
o=NetscapeRoot
suffix of the
configuration directory.
