Compatibility and Installation Requirements for NIS/LDAP Gateway
This section provides basic instructions for installing the NIS/LDAP Gateway. For complete
installation and configuration instructions, refer to NIS/LDAP Gateway Administrator’s Guide.
Hardware Requirements
An HP 9000 or HP ia64 computer system.
Memory Requirements
This product has minimal memory and disk requirements. Your system should have at least 32
MB of main memory, and at least five megabytes of free disk space under /opt.
Depending on the size of your NIS maps and if you wish to cache that data in the NIS/LDAP
Gateway server, you will need additional physical main memory, approximately two to three
times the total size of your existing NIS maps.
Operating System Requirement
HP-UX 11i v1 on HP 9000 or HP-UX 11i v2 on HP ia64.
Patch Requirements
The NIS/LDAP Gateway software has no specific patch requirements.
Preparing for Installation
Verify you have at least five megabytes of free disk space under /opt.
Installing the NIS/LDAP Gateway
Use the SD-UX facility for installation. See the swinstall(1M) man page for details.
1. Log in to your system as root.
2. If a ypldapd server is already running on your system, terminate it with the kill(1) command.
3. Run swinstall and install the NisLdapServer product. This installs the product software
int he /opt/ldapux directory. No reboot is required.
Configuration Quick Start
If your NIS maps have been migrated to an LDAP directory, you can set up a ypldapd server
with only a few steps. If you have not migrated your NIS maps to the LDAP directory, see
Installing and Administering NIS/LDAP Gateway.
• If you have already configured other NIS/LDAP Gateway servers on other systems, you can
simply duplicate the configuration file /opt/ldapux/ypldapd/etc/ypldapd.conf on the local
system.
• Otherwise, edit the file /opt/ldapux/ypldapd/etc/ypldapd.conf and add the appropriate
values according to the descriptions in the file. Minimally you will need to update the
ypdomain, ldaphost, basedn, binddn and bindcred parameters. If you have a large LDAP
database and you are using 11i v1 or v2 NIS clients, you should set preload_maps to
