Starting Sun Internet Administrator

To manage Solaris ISP Server services through Sun Internet Administrator, you must start Sun Internet Administrator and register the services with Sun Internet Administrator.

To Start Sun Internet Administrator

Before starting Sun Internet Administrator, ensure that the initial entries have been made in Sun Directory Services. Sun Internet Administrator requires a properly configured and running Sun Directory Services server to make the entries. If:

• Sun Directory Services was running when you installed Sun Internet Administrator, the entries have already been initialized.

• You installed Sun Internet Administrator and Sun Directory Services together, the entries have already been initialized.

• Sun Directory Services was not running at the time of installing Sun Internet Administrator, you must initialize the Sun Internet Administrator entries.

1. If entries have not already been initialized, obtain root access and enter: # /opt/SUNWixamc/bin/mcdsinit -d DNofDSadmin -n ConsoleAdmin

   For more information on mcdsinit, refer to the man page. To view a man page, enter man -M /opt/SUNWixamc/man command, where command is the command whose man page you want to view.

   The remainder of this procedure does not require root access. You can now access Sun Internet Administrator from a browser.
