6.2. LDAP Tool Locations
Red Hat Directory Server uses Mozilla LDAP tools — such as ldapsearch, ldapmodify, and
ldapdelete — for command-line operations. The MozLDAP tools are installed with Directory Server
and are located in the /usr/lib64 /mozldap and /usr/bin/mozldap6/ directories. When running
any LDAP command, make sure that you are using the MozLDAP utilities, otherwise the command will
return errors.
For most Linux systems, OpenLDAP tools are already installed in the /usr/bin directory. These
OpenLDAP tools will not work for Directory Server operations.
6.3. Starting the Directory Server Console
There is a simple script to launch the Directory Server Console. The command is in the /usr/bin tool
directory, so it can be run as follows:
redhat-idm-console
NOTE
Make sure that the correct JDK is set in the PAT H before launching the Console.
The login screen prompts for the username, password, and Admin Server location. It is possible to pass
other information along with the Console command to supply the Admin Server URL, password, and
username. For example:
