Installation guide

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. T his 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 7.1, “Directory Server File Locations”.
5.3. 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.
NOTE
The setup program gets the host information from the /etc/resolv.conf file. If there are
aliases in the /etc/hosts file, such as ldap.example.com , that do not match the
/etc/resolv.conf settings, the setup program cannot use the default hostname option, and
setup will fail.
WARNING
If Directory Server is already installed on your machine, it is extremely important that you perform
a migration, not a fresh installation. Migration is described in Chapter 8, Migrating from Previous
Versions.
