Dear All, I'm a very newbye user of fedora-directory .... To start, I have a big problem! :-( Well, I have downloaded and installed from rpm package.

Run perl ds_newinst.pl my_new_inf_file O.K., Perl script run and at console I retry this message: CGI /opt/ldapserver/bin/slapd/admin/bin/ds_newinst failed with 1: here is the output: Content-type: text/plain error:could not create server localhost - Could not write /opt/ldapserver/bin/slapd/admin/scripts/template-ldif2db.pl to /opt/ldapserver/slapd-localhost/ldif2db.pl (No such file or director).
