Chapter 2, Installing iPlanet Web Server 31
Installing iPlanet Web Server for Unix
For more information on ports, see “Choosing Unique Port Numbers” on
page 17.
14. Type the port number of iPlanet Web Server. The default is 80. This port
should be different than the Administration Server port. Unless you are
installing as root, the port must be within the stated range (1024 to 65535).
If you are installing as root you can use port numbers below 1024.
If you use a port other than the default port (port 80), the URL used to gain
access to your home page will change. For example, if your computer is
called www.mozilla.com and you choose port 9753, your server’s URL
will be
http://www.mozilla.com:9753/
For more information on ports, see “Choosing Unique Port Numbers” on
page 17.
15. Specify whether you are using an LDAP-based directory server (enter Yes or
No).
You must use an LDAP directory server if you want to use user and group
functionality in iPlanet Web Server.
If you use an LDAP directory server, enter following:
• The LDAP URL in the format ldap://hotname:port/base DN. For
example, ldap://mozilla.com:389/o=siroe.com.
• The bind DN (for example, cn=Directory Manager) and the directory
server password.
16. Type the root directory where your server’s content files (the images, html
documents and data you want to present to users accessing the server) will
reside. The default is server_root/docs.
17. If you want to use your own JDK, enter Yes.
If you are installing Java support, you must have a JRE or a JDK. You can
install the supplied JRE subcomponent or use a JDK already installed on
your system. For more information, see “Installing a Java Developer’s Kit”
on page 23.
