Sun Directory Services 3.1 Administration Guide

To Display the Admin Console Locally without a Web Server

  1. 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.

  2. Start the HotJava browser with the following path to point it at the administration files:

    prompt% /usr/dt/bin/hotjava file:/opt/SUNWconn/html/dsadmin.html
  3. Log in to the Admin Console using the name and password of the administrator user.

    The Admin Console is displayed.
