Some more info. I notice that on my RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 FDS Server, I have to punch two holes on FireWall (iptables) before I could get my Windows FDS Console to work. I suspect this is due to the fact that I have SELINUX set to "disabled" BUT SELINUXTYPE set to "targeted" in /etc/sysconfig/selinux, anyone could explain why? # cat /etc/sysconfig/selinux SELINUX=disabled SELINUXTYPE=targeted One hole for port 389 (ldap), the other for port 38900 (admin port for my case). # vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables Add two lines: -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 389 -j ACCEPT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 38900 -j ACCEPT # service iptables restart BTW, I am happily using J2SDK 1.5.0 on Windows, startconsole.bat seems to run without issue, although J2SDK 1.5.0 is not yet certified to work with FDS.

Subject: **Caution-External**: RE: Open-source Management Console andAdminserver FDS User Folks, I have written a script to help to create a "startconsole.bat". You have to run this script at RedHat server, it expects a "startconsole.txt" which is the output of RedHat "startconsole -D" command, and it generates "startconsole.bat". You should edit "/opt/fedora-ds" in this script to reflect the FDS root directory of your installation. You should edit also "ldap1.example.com" in this script to suit your need and copy "startconsole.bat" over to c:\fedora\java. "startconsole.bat" should be run after "cd c:\fedora\java". Content if "startconsole.txt" /opt/fedora-ds/bin/base/jre/bin/java -ms8m -mx64m -cp .:./mcc70_en.jar:./nmclf70_en.jar:./ldapjdk.jar:./mcc70.jar:./base.jar:./nmclf70.jar:./jss3.jar -Djava.library.path=/opt/fedora-ds/lib/jss -Djava.util.prefs.systemRoot=/opt/fedora-ds/java/.java -Djava.util.prefs.userRoot=/opt/fedora-ds/java com.netscape.management.client.console.Console -D -A http://ldap1.example.com:38900 Content of "cr_startconsole_bat.sh" #! /bin/sh # # cr_startconsole_bat.sh # # input: startconsole.txt # output: startconsole.bat # sed -e 's/\/opt\/fedora-ds\/bin\/base\/jre\/bin\///' \ -e 's/\/opt\/fedora-ds\/java/./g' \ -e 's/\/opt\/fedora-ds\/lib/..\\lib/g' \ -e 's/:/;/g' \ -e 's/\//\\/g' \ -e 's/http;\\\\/http:\/\//' \ -e 's/ldap1.example.com;/ldap1.example.com:/' \ startconsole.txt > startconsole.bat Content of "startconsole.bat" generated by running "cr_startconsole_bat.sh" java -ms8m -mx64m -cp .;.\mcc70_en.jar;.\nmclf70_en.jar;.\ldapjdk.jar;.\mcc70.jar;.\base.jar;.\nmclf70.jar;.\jss3.jar -Djava.library.path=..\lib\jss -Djava.util.prefs.systemRoot=.\.java -Djava.util.prefs.userRoot=. com.netscape.management.client.console.Console -D -A http://ldap1.example.com:38900 Enjoys.
