Typical Setup

31

2. Select 

y

 to accept the Red Hat licensing terms.

3. The 

dsktune

 utility runs. Select 

y

 to continue with the setup.

dsktune

 checks the available disk space, processor type, physical memory, and other system

data and settings such as TCP/IP ports and file descriptor settings. If your system does not meet
these basic Red Hat Directory Server requirements, 

dsktune

 returns a warning. 

dsktune

warnings do not block the setup process; simply enter 

y

 to go to the next step.

4. Next, choose the setup type. Accept the default, option 

2

, to perform a typical setup.

5. Set the computer name of the machine on which the Directory Server is being configured. This

defaults to the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) for the host. For example:

Computer name [ldap.example.com]:

NOTE

The setup program gets the host information from the 

/etc/resolv.conf

 file. If

there are aliases in the 

/etc/hosts

 file, such as 

ldap.example.com

, that do

not match the 

/etc/resolv.conf

 settings, you cannot use the default hostname

option.

The hostname is very important. It is used generate the Directory Server instance name, the
admin domain, and the base suffix, among others. If you are using SSL/TLS or Kerberos, the
computer name must be the exact name that clients use to connect to the system. If you will use
DNS, make sure the name resolves to a valid IP address and that IP address resolves back to this
name.

6. Set the user and group as which the Directory Server process will run. The default is

nobody:nobody

. For example:

System User [nobody]:
System Group [nobody]:

7. The next step allows you to register your Directory Server with an existing Directory Server

instance, called the 

Configuration Directory Server

. This registers the new instance so it can be

managed by the Console. If this is the first Directory Server instance set up on your network,
it is not possible to register it with another directory. Select 

n

 to set up this Directory Server

as a Configuration Directory Server and move to the next typical install step, setting up the
administrator user.

NOTE

To register the Directory Server instance with an existing Configuration Directory
Server, select 

yes

. This continues with the registration process rather than the regular

typical setup process.

Registering a new instance with a Configuration Directory Server requires you to
supply information about the Configuration Directory Server:
