Enterprise Server documentation, check this site:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/
For configuring other HTTP servers, follow the documentation that came with the
product.
To configure the gateway to work with Red Hat Enterprise Server, follow the instructions
below:
1. Add an additional CGI directory.
Adding an additional CGI directory is necessary to make the gateway’s CGI programs
available. For additional information, see
http://enterprise.netscape.com/docs/enterprise/611/admin/esp
rgrm.htm#21309
.
From the Class Manager for the Red Hat Enterprise Server:
a. Select Programs > CGI Directory.
b. In the URL Prefix field, enter the URL prefix to use:
/clients/dsgw/bin
c.
In the CGI Directory field, enter this (replace serverRoot with your installation
directory):
serverRoot/clients/dsgw/bin
d.
Click OK, then Save and Apply.
