[Fedora-directory-users] new install - howto start using
Hi, I have FDS 1.04 on RHEL4 installed and was wondering how to get started using this? The installation is easy, now i''d like to know how to add new users and test things out. The docs and long extensive, I didn''t actually see a simple get stared guide. I hope adding new users easier than the openldap way, having to create LDIF files, doing ldapadd, etc.

If you are a RHEL customer, you should be able to just do up2date java-1.4.2-ibm to get the correct java. This is in the Extras or Supplemental channel. Use java -version to confirm you are using the IBM java and not gcj. Then, cd /opt/fedora-ds ./startconsole Use http://localhost:adminserverport/ for the Admin URL If you don''t know what your admin server port is, grep \^Listen admin-serv/config/console.conf> > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > -- > Fedora-directory-users mailing list > Fedora-directory-users@redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-directory-users >

Re: [Fedora-directory-users] new install - howto start using
I created a user, but I don''t see it from the directory server tab under netscaperoot or my suffix. I can only guess what I should be doing to try using it, the install guide seems to assume you either know what you''re doing already or have existing LDAP users to migrate. I wish there was a get started guide, any ideas how to get going?
