Adding FTP and Web Virtual Hosting Information

The information required for the specially-configured virtual hosting available with Sun^TM Internet FTP Server^TM and Sun^TM WebServer^TM (SWS) adds only three attributes to the data file:

gidnumber: 60001 
uidnumber: 60001 
ispcontentdirectory: jldoe

Where

gidNumber

Is the UNIX group ID specified for this user in the virtually-hosted domain for FTP and Web services.

uidNumber

Is the UNIX user ID specified for this user in the virtually-hosted domain for FTP and Web services.

ispContentDirectory

Is the location (relative to the associated domain's document root) where this subscriber's content files are located.

Setting the values for the uidNumber and gidNumber attributes requires existing UNIX accounts properly set up to share access to the virtual FTP domain. See the Sun Internet FTP Server on-line help for information on defining a virtual host configuration.

You can create any number of subscriber entries by adding blocks of data to the file. When it is complete, save and close people.ldif. Obtain root access and add the subscriber entries to the directory with the following command, replacing the bind DN and password with your own:

# ldapadd -D "cn=admin,o=sun,c=US" -w password -f people.ldif

If you have already created these entries, you must perform an ldapmodify. Locate the manual page for ldapmodify(1) and follow those instructions.
