Setting Environment Variables for dsconf

The dsconf command requires some options that you can preset by using environment variables. If you do not specify an option when using the command, or do not set the environment variable, the default setting is used. You can configure environment variables for the following options:

-D user DN

User bind DN. Environment variable: LDAP_ADMIN_USER. Default: cn=Directory Manager.

-w password-file

Password file for the user bind DN. Environment variable: LDAP_ADMIN_PWF. Default: Prompt for password.

-h host

Host name. Environment variable: DIRSERV_HOST. Default: local host.

-p LDAP-port

LDAP port number. Environment variable: DIRSERV_PORT. Default: 389.

-e, --unsecured

Specifies that dsconf should open a clear connection by default. Environment variable: DIRSERV_UNSECURED. If this variable is not set, dsconf opens a secure connection by default.
