LDAP-UX Client Services B.05.00 Administrator's Guide
LDAP-UX was successfully configured.
NOTE: For more information about the configuration files created or modified by autosetup,
see “Samples of LDAP-UX configuration files created or modified by autosetup” (page 359). You
can display details about the LDAP-UX Client Services configuration by using the
/opt/ldapux/config/display_profile_cache command. For more information about
the use of this command, see Section 7.2.4 (page 215).
2.3.7.2 Automating Existing Directory Server Installation mode
For this mode of installation, you can run autosetup in silent mode as well as provide pre-set
values for parameters in the command line or with environment variables. As discussed in
Section 2.3.7.1 (page 51), you must pre-establish trust with the remote directory server by installing
the CA certificate prior to running autosetup. To perform this installation without user
interaction, you need to specify the following in command-line options or environment variables:
The bind DN (the DN of the directory server user who can add the local host to the directory
server's LDAP-UX domain): use either the -D option or the LDAP_BINDDN variable.
The password used with the bind DN: use either -j option or the LDAP_BINDCRED variable.
The host name of the directory server being joined: use either -h option or the LDAP_HOSTPORT
variable.
In the following example, these parameters are specified in the command line:
# ./autosetup -h hpdhcalif -D "uid=domadmin,ou=people,dc=calif,dc=acme,dc=com" -j /tmp/jfile -q

2.3.7.3 Post-installation steps for Existing Directory Server Installation mode
Perform the post-installation configuration tasks documented in Section 2.5 (page 89), as needed.
2.3.8 Guided installation steps: Existing LDAP-UX Domain Installation mode
This section explains how to install LDAP-UX in an environment that has already been configured
for LDAP-UX, joining the local host into an existing LDAP-UX domain. In this mode, the guided
installation simply downloads the existing domain configuration (the LDAP-UX configuration
profile) and registers the host in the LDAP-UX domain. Section 2.3.8.1 (page 54) shows how to
perform the guided installation interactively, explaining step-by-step how to respond to each
prompt for user input. Section 2.3.8.2 (page 56) shows how to run a completely-automated (silent
mode) guided installation.
