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

on the command line. Only used in New Directory Server
Installation mode (installing LDAP-UX for the first time).
DS_ADMIN_SERVER
Sets the host name (or IP address), and optionally the port
number, of the directory server's Administration Server, the
server that manages the directory server administration
domain that the new directory server will join. Only used in
New Directory Server Installation mode (installing LDAP-UX
for the first time). The default port is 389. Specify in one of
the following formats:
host-name
host-name:port
ip-address
ip-address:port
DS_INSTANCE_NAME
Sets the name of the newly created directory server instance.
This is the only way to pre-set the instance name. If this
variable is not used, autosetup automatically generates the
instance name in the format dns-prefix-master, where
dns-prefix is the prefix of the local host's DNS domain
name. For example, if the local host's DNS domain name is
west.acme.com, the generated instance name would be
west-master. Only used in New Directory Server
Installation mode (installing LDAP-UX for the first time).
LDAP_BASEDN
Sets the search base DN; for example,
dc=lab,dc=acme,dc=com. A search operation is performed
on the base DN, the DN of the entry and all entries below it
in the directory tree. 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. Equivalent
to using the -b option in the command line.
LDAP_BINDDN
When creating a new directory server, this specifies the
Directory Manager's distinguished name (DN). When
installing and configuring LDAP-UX in an existing directory
server environment or LDAP-UX domain, this is the DN of
any member of the DomainAdmins group — host
administrators that have privileges to add hosts to the domain
(but more limited privileges than the Directory Manager).
This is the bind DN that LDAP-UX clients use for accessing
the HP-UX Directory Server. The default is cn=Directory
Manager. An example of a setting for this variable is:
LDAP_BINDDN=uid=domadmin,ou=people,dc=document,dc=hp,dc=com.
Equivalent to using the -D option in the command line.
LDAP_BINDCRED Sets the password for the user defined by LDAP_BINDDN.
Equivalent to using the -j option in the command line (except
this command-line option specifies a file containing the
password).
LDAP_DOMAIN_ADMIN
Sets the name of the LDAP-UX Domain Administrator, who
is responsible for managing all data in the LDAP-UX domain
and can create a new administration domain and register all
directory servers in that domain. If this variable is not defined
for use with autosetup, the default is domadmin. No
