Installing iPlanet Directory Server
If you are planning to use users and groups (for example, for access control) with your
iPlanet Web Server, you need to install iPlanet Directory Server before installing the iPlanet
Web Server, or use an exiting LDAP server installation.

CAUTION
iPlanet Web Server 6.0 and iPlanet Directory Server 5.0 cannot exist in the same
directory. If you plan to install iPlanet Directory Server 5.0 on the same machine as
your web server, you must install it in a different directory than your iPlanet Web
Server 6.0.
NOTE‘
iPlanet Directory Server 5.0 does not support the Linux platform. To use Directory
Server with iPlanet Web Server on Linux platforms, use an earlier version of the
Directory Server or install iPlanet Directory Server 5.0 on a separate Unix or NT
machine and configure your web server to connect to that Directory Server. See the
web server’s Administrator’s Guide for details.
