Starting the Directory Server Daemons

Deja requires the directory services daemon, dsservd, to be running on the directory server. In addition, the Web Gateway requires the web gateway daemon, dswebd, to be running on the server that holds the directory. Before you start Deja or the Web Gateway, make sure that the appropriate daemons are running. If they are not, start them as described in the following section.

Starting the dsservd and dswebd Daemons

To start the directory server daemon, dsservd, as root type:

# /etc/init.d/dsserv start

To start the web gateway daemon, dswebd, as root type:

# /etc/init.d/dsweb start

When you install Sun Directory Services, these commands are added to the system startup file, so that all the server daemons are started automatically when the machine is rebooted.
