Installation guide

cd /directory/tmp/RedHat/PKGS

3. Translate the package to the Solaris filesystem format:

for i in `ls *.pkg`; do yes all | pkgtrans $i /directory/ ; done

4. Add the package:

yes yes | pkgadd -d /directory/ all

If another application such as Red Hat Certificate System is already installed on the server,

pkgadd detects the shared packages. Make sure that the pkgadd program replaces any

existing versions with the packages included with Directory Server.

5. After the Directory Server packages are installed, run the setup program to set up and

configure the default Directory Server instance and the Administration Server.

/usr/sbin/setup-ds-admin.pl

6. Accept the initial screens for licensing and dsktune output, then select the setup type, and

proceed with configuring the new Directory Server instance.

NOTE

Directory Server version 8.0 conforms to the Filesystem Hierarchy Standards.

This means that the directories and files are in different locations than previous

versions. For more information on FHS, see the http://www.pathname.com/fhs/

homepage. For a table showing the new file locations, see Section 1, “Directory

Server File Locations”.

3. Express Setup

Use express installation if you are installing Directory Server for an evaluation or trial. Because

express installation does not offer the choice of selecting the Directory Server server port

number or the directory suffix, among other settings, Red Hat recommends not using it for

production deployments.
