Configuring the OpenLDAP Directory Server Independently of the Installation Procedure

Use the /usr/internet/openldap/config_openldap.sh script to configure the /usr/ internet/openldap/etc/slapd.conf file and to initialize an LDAP database. You will need to provide an Organization Name, used as the searchbase, a Distinguished Name, used for connections to the server, and an Administrative password.

Once this script has run, use the /sbin/init.d/openldap start command to start the OpenLDAP slapd daemon on your system.

You may run the config_openldap.sh file more than once. However the script will attempt to reinitialize the database each time it is run and you might lose the existing data. To preserve existing data before reinitializing, either use the provided script, /usr/internet/openldap/ sbin/dump_db.sh, or the /usr/internet/openldap/sbin/slapcat utility. See the slapcat(8) reference page for more information.
