Hi all, I am going to install FDS on a FreeBSD jail. This means that FDS will use FC8 compatibility mode which provided by FreeBSD 7.2. I downloaded the binary version of FDS 1.04 (fedora-ds-1.0.4-1.FC6.i386.opt.rpm) and my initial installation worked perfectly. This is only a *test* and now I''d like to install the latest version of FDS. I searched at http://directory.fedoraproject.org/yum/dirsrv/fedora/ but there were so many packages that made me confused. I''d like to know: (1) what are components of FDS 1.2.0 and what files should I download to get FDS worked in FC8? (If FDS binaries work on FC8 they should work on a FreeBSD jail ;) (2) is it necessary to start the web interface of FDS? I just like to setup a LDAP database and then run all from command lines without touching the web browsers (yes I hate GUI). If this is the case I will run only FDS service and have nothing to do with Apache/Java requirements of FDS. In fact I don''t want to install any web servers on my FDS server. Your helps are highly appreciated. And if you have ever experienced FDS on FreeBSD please give me some advices! Regards, -- Ky Anh, Huynh Homepage: http://viettug.org/

I''ve built `fedora-ds-base` successfully on FC8. Then I move all built files to my FreeBSD machine to test. You can read some details at http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?p=24826#post24826. After chroot-ing to Linux inside FreeBSD I run `setup-ds.pl` to create the first instance of FDS. The script worked very well but it couldnot start the service as below. /============================================================================= $ uname -s FreeBSD $ chroot /home/fc8/ /bin/bash # # now i''m in Linux mode # /opt/fedora-ds/sbin/ns-slapd \ -d 9 \ -D /opt/fedora-ds/etc/dirsrv/slapd-fds2 \ -i /opt/fedora-ds/var/run/dirsrv/slapd-fds2.pid \ -w /opt/fedora-ds/var/run/dirsrv/slapd-fds2.startpid ....

Error 38.(Function not implemented) \============================================================================= FDS tried to create stat file but it failed to do that. So it stopped working. Is there anyone who experiences this problem? Regards, -- Ky Anh, Huynh Homepage: http://viettug.org/

I don''t know why chroot environments trigger this problem # in chroot environments, sem_open doesn''t work # gets errno 38 (function not implemented) # I found some information that says this: # As sem_open() creates named semaphores, it always tries to share them between processes. # Additionally, to support sharing named semaphores with sem_open() # add a line to /etc/fstab to mount /dev/shm as a tmpfs # tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 # run mount /dev/shm or reboot NOTE: you have to mount /dev/shm in the same chroot session as the one you run the server in - you cannot do something like chroot "mount /dev/shm" then in another session chroot "start-slapd" The mount does not persist between chroot sessions.> Regards, > >
