HP-UX Directory Server 8.1 administrator guide

NOTE:
Modifying the standard or secure port numbers for a Configuration Directory Server, which
maintains the o=NetscapeRoot subtree, should be done through the Directory Server Console.
Changing the configuration directory or user directory port or secure port numbers has the
following repercussions:
• The Directory Server port number must also be updated in the Administration Server
configuration.
• If there are other Directory Server instances that point to the configuration or user directory,
update those servers to point to the new port number.
To modify a Directory Server LDAP or LDAPS port for either a user or a configuration directory:
1. In the Directory Server Console, select the Configuration tab, then select the top entry in
the navigation tree in the left pane.
2. Select the Settings tab in the right pane.
3. Change the port numbers. The port number for the server to use for non-SSL communications
in the Por t field, with a default value of 389. The port number for the server to use for SSL
communications is in the Encrypted Port field, with a default value of 636.
4. Click Save.
5. The Console returns a warning:
You are about to change the port number for the Configuration Directory. This will affect all
Administration Servers that use this directory and you'll need to update them with the new port
number. Are you sure you want to change the port number?
Click Yes.
6. Then a dialog appears, explaining that the changes will not take effect until the server is
restarted. Click OK.
