LDAP-UX Client Services B.05.00 Administrator's Guide

-b search_base
Specifies the base DN for which search operations should
be performed for an existing LDAP-UX domain, or the
base DN used when creating a new LDAP-UX domain; for
example, dc=lab,dc=acme,dc=com. Typically, set the
base DN to the directory's suffix value. Because the
directory suffix is equal to the root, or topmost, entry in
the directory, this causes all searches to begin from the
directory's root entry. If not specified, the default when
creating a new directory server instance will be generated
using the local DNS domain name. With an existing
directory server, the default is discovered from the list of
default naming contexts on the existing directory. This
option only applies for LDAP-UX installations in a
directory server environment. If specified with an
LDAP-UX Windows Server AD installation, this variable
is ignored.
-h host_name
Specifies the host name (or IP address), and optionally the
port number, of an existing directory server that contains
an existing LDAP-UX domain or of a directory server that
is to be configured for LDAP-UX support. The default host
name is the fully-qualified DNS domain name of the host;
the default port is 389. Specify in one of the following
formats:
host-name
host-name:port
ip-address
ip-address:port
-j password_filename
Specifies a file that includes the password for the user
specified with the -D option. Specifying this file enables
autosetup to run without prompting you for the
password; thus, it enables you to perform the guided
installation in silent mode.
-p ds_port_id
Specifies the number of the port that clients use for
accessing the directory server. This is the port clients access
to search the directory server for entries. The default is
port number 389. You need not specify the port if it has
already been specified with the host name.
-s ds_sslport_id
Specifies the number of the directory server SSL port for
accessing the directory server when SSL options are used.
The default is SSL port 636.
-v n Specifies verbose level for debugging purposes, with n
specifying one of the following: 0 (turns off verbose mode),
1, 2, or 3 (specifies the highest level of verbosity).
-x domain_name
When configuring LDAP-UX in a directory server
environment, this option specifies the LDAP-UX domain
name; for example, accounting.acme.com. The specified
name will be used to define the suffix of the new directory
server's directory tree. If you do not specify the domain
name, this tool obtains it from DNS by executing
nslookup on the host name of the local system.
-q Specifies that autosetup be invoked in silent (quiet)
mode. Silent mode runs without user intervention. Instead
