Express Installation
Express installation is for users who have little experience or are evaluating the product. It
makes assumptions about such things as port number and which components to install. The
following table lists the assumptions made by the Express installation. If you would like to
use different installation settings, use Typical or Custom installation.
After installing, you can configure the server to use LDAP users and groups, and to use a
JDK. For more information on how to make these changes, see the iPlanet Web Server
Administrator’s Guide.
