You do not need special rights to run idsconfig, nor do you need to be an LDAP naming client. Remember to create a checklist as mentioned in Creating a Checklist Based on Your Server Installation in preparation for running idsconfig. You do not have to run idsconfig from a server or an LDAP naming service client machine. You can run idsconfig from any Solaris machine on the network.
idsconfig sends the Directory Manager's password in the clear. If you do not want this to happen, you must run idsconfig on the directory server itself, not on a client.
Make sure the target Sun Java System Directory Server is up and running.
Run idsconfig.
# /usr/lib/ldap/idsconfig |
Refer to Example 11–1 for an example run of idsconfig using the definitions listed in the server and client checklists at the beginning of this chapter in Creating a Checklist Based on Your Server Installation.
Answer the questions when prompted.

After idsconfig has completed the setup of the directory, you need to run the specified commands on the server before the server setup is complete and the server is ready to serve clients.
This section provides an example of a basic idsconfig setup that uses many of the defaults. The most complicated method of modifying client profiles is to create SSDs. Refer to Using Service Search Descriptors to Modify Client Access to Various Services for a detailed discussion.
The data in square brackets after a prompt indicates the default value for that prompt. To accept the default value, press Return.

After idsconfig has completed the setup of the directory, you need to run the specified commands on the server before the server setup is complete and the server is ready to serve clients.
In the following example, the idsconfig utility is run immediately after a server instance is created on the LDAP server.
