To Display the Admin Console Remotely through a Web Server

1. Create a symbolic link from the documentation root directory for your web server to /opt/SUNWconn/html:

   prompt% cd docroot_dir
   prompt% ln -s /opt/SUNWconn/html sds

   where docroot_dir is the documentation root directory for your web server.

   Your web server must be running on the same machine as the dsservd daemon.

2. If you are using the HotJava browser, change the default security level by editing the .hotjava/properties file in your home directory.

   Use any text editor to change the following line from:

   hotjava.default.security=medium

   to:

   hotjava.default.security=low

   If you have not used the HotJava browser before, you must create the .hotjava/properties file and add the line hotjava.default.security=low.

3. Start the HotJava browser on any machine, and point it at the Admin Console:

   prompt% /usr/dt/bin/hotjava http://hostname/sds/dsadmin.html

   where hostname is the hostname of the machine running the Sun Directory Services and the web server.

4. Log in to the Admin Console using the name and password of the administrator user.

   The Admin Console is displayed.
