The script initializes the local branch LDAP database using the
ldapadd
com-
mand from the offline installation file.
6
In the offline installation mode, it is not yet possible to find the branch server
domain. Therefore, if there is no internet connection, the attempt fails and the
script terminates. However if there is a connection to the Administration Server,
the script finds the branch server domain in the Administration Server LDAP
database and prints information about the found domain.

The script asks for a final confirmation before it configures and starts the core
Branch Server services.

If everything is OK the script finishes successfully. If an error is encountered it
is reported and logged in syslog.
NOTE: Aborting the Script
If you select
no
in any configuration step (except when you select not
to use a local branch LDAP), the script deletes all its intermediate data
and exits.
NOTE: Administration and Branch Server Combination
If the administration and branch servers are being configured on a single ma-
chine, no certificates are used and the SSL communication is disabled. Also,
there is no local branch LDAP database created, as the offline functionality is
not needed.
