Initial Configuration Properties

When you install the directory service software, most configurable characteristics are given default settings that enable you to start and run a directory server. The only items that you must configure are:

Name of the administrator
Password for the administrator (the default is secret)
Distinguished Name (DN) of the naming context held in the data store by the server
Location of the data store

Note - Although command-line configuration activities are described in detail in this chapter, the recommended procedures for configuration are most easily accomplished using the System Administrator Console Graphical User Interface (GUI), described in the Sun Internet Mail Server 3.5 Administrator's Guide.
