Step 2: Gather your information
You need the following information before you begin:
Host name of the server TCP port to respond to Address Book Server connections Â
Authentication method (Digest, Kerberos v5, or Any) Â
Location of the data store Â
Estimated storage quota per user Â
Certicate information for SSL connections (optional) Â
This ensures smooth installation and can help you make planning decisions.
Step 3: Set up the environment
If you’re not in complete control of the network environment (DNS servers, DHCP
server, rewall, and so forth), coordinate with your network administrator before
installing. If you’re connecting the server to an existing directory system, you must also
coordinate eorts with the directory administrator.
Step 4: Congure and start Address Book Server
Congure the service parameters and turn on Address Book Server. As users log in to
the service with their CardDAV-enabled applications, the service creates the needed
directories and les. For more information about enabling, conguring, and starting
Address Book Server, see the following sections:
