RE: **Caution-External**: RE: [Fedora-directory-users] Open-source Management Console andAdminserver
Some more info.
I notice that on my RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 FDS Server, I have to punch two
holes on FireWall (iptables) before I could get my Windows FDS Console to work.
I suspect this is due to the fact that I have SELINUX set to
"disabled" BUT SELINUXTYPE set to "targeted" in
/etc/sysconfig/selinux, anyone could explain why?
# cat /etc/sysconfig/selinux
SELINUX=disabled
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
One hole for port 389 (ldap), the other for port 38900 (admin port for my case).
# vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables
Add two lines:
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 389 -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 38900 -j
ACCEPT
# service iptables restart
BTW, I am happily using J2SDK 1.5.0 on Windows, startconsole.bat seems to run
without issue, although J2SDK 1.5.0 is not yet certified to work with FDS.

Management Console andAdminserver
FDS User Folks,
I have written a script to help to create a "startconsole.bat".
You have to run this script at RedHat server, it expects a
"startconsole.txt" which is the output of RedHat "startconsole
-D" command, and it generates "startconsole.bat".
You should edit "/opt/fedora-ds" in this script to reflect the FDS
root directory of your installation.
You should edit also "ldap1.example.com" in this script to suit your
need and copy "startconsole.bat" over to c:\fedora\java.
"startconsole.bat" should be run after "cd c:\fedora\java".
