Web Gateway

The web gateway provides an end-user interface to an LDAP directory from any web browser. You can use this interface to browse the directory, to search for and read entries, and to modify some directory information.

The web gateway works as an HTTP server. It must be located on the same machine as the LDAP directory server dsservd. The web gateway uses configurable templates to display directory information to users.

The web gateway daemon is dswebd. For information on starting, stopping, and configuring the web gateway, refer to Chapter 10, Managing the Directory Services. For information on using the web gateway, refer to Sun Directory Services 3.1 User's Guide.
