4.5.5. About .inf File Parameters
With a silent setup, all of the configuration information that is normally supplied interactively with the
setup program must be included in the .inf file or passed in the command line with the setup-ds-
adm in.pl command.
NOTE
Providing configuration parameters with the setup-ds-adm in.pl command is described in

slapd — which supplies information about the specific Directory Server instance; this information, like

admin — which supplies information specific to the Admin Server instance; this is not used when
creating additional Directory Server server instances or setting up a single Directory Server instance.
The format of the .inf file is as follows:
