Conﬁguring the LDAP-UX Client Services

Chapter 6120

Quick Conﬁguration

You can quickly conﬁgure the LDAP-UX Client Services by selecting the

default value for most of the conﬁguration parameters as follows:

Step 1. To be consistent with the Samba organizational unit defaults, you must

edit the /opt/ldapux/migrate/migrate_common.ph ﬁle to change the

default group objectclass under $RFC2307BIS structure from ou=Group

to ou=Groups.

Step 2. Log in as root and run the setup program:

$ cd /opt/ldapux/config

$ ./setup

The setup program asks you a series of questions and usually provides

default answers. Press the Enter key to accept the default, or change the

value and press Enter. At any point during setup, press Control+b to

back up or Control+c to exit the setup program.

Step 3. Choose Netscape Directory as your LDAP directory server (option 1).

Step 4. Enter either the host name or IP address of the directory server where

your proﬁle exists, or where you want to create a new proﬁle.

Step 5. Enter the port number of the previously speciﬁed directory server that

you want to store the proﬁle. The default port number is 389.

Setup checks the directory to see if the schema has been extended with

the posixAccount objectclass and attributes. This must be done, but

only needs to be done once.

Step 6. If the schema has already been extended, setup skips this step.

Otherwise, to extend the schema, enter the Distinguished Name (DN)

and password of the directory user who can extend the directory schema.

For example, you can enter “Directory Manager “as the directory

manager DN and password of the directory manager.

To extend the schema, you are prompted for the following input:

1. Enter the DN of the directory user. The default value is displayed. To

use the default, press the Enter key; otherwise, enter you DN name.

2. Enter the password.
