later for configuration in Configuration Worksheet (page 243).
• See the LDAP-UX Integration B.04.10 Release Notes (J4269-90065) at
http://docs.hp.com/hpux/internet for last-minute information.
• You must have an LDAP directory. You can obtain the Directory Server for HP-UX version
6.x or 7.x from your local HP sales office or www.hp.com and view the documentation at
http://docs.hp.com/en/internet.html.
• See the white paper Preparing Your Directory for HP-UX Integration at
http://docs.hp.com/hpux/internet for advice on how to set up and configure your directory
to work with HP-UX.
• Most examples here use the Netscape Directory Server for HP-UX version 6.x and assume
you have some knowledge of this directory and its tools, such as the Directory Console and
ldapsearch. If you have another directory, consult your directory's documentation for specific
information.
