Hi all, Thank you for the FDS software! This morning I installed the Fedora Directory Server (FDS) on Ubuntu Dapper Drake (6.06 LTS). This procedure seems to work for me in order to get FDS running on the Dapper platform: The procedure is almost equal to the existing howto for Ubuntu Breezy Badger and Debian GNU/Linux Sarge which is available at http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Howto:DebianUbuntu I'll just describe the parts that deviate. I installed the FDS on a clean minimal installation of Ubuntu Dapper Drake server-version (x86), which is available at http://www.ubuntu.com/download As Dapper uses libc6 version 2.3.6 I took the Fedora Core 4-rpm (version 1.0.2) as a base for conversion to '.deb'. You can download the rpm at http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Download The necessary termcap-compat package does not seem to be available for 'Dapper', so I just used the 'Breezy' version of that package. termcap-compat depends on the 'libc5' and 'ldso' packages which aren't available for 'Dapper' eighter. You can get the Breezy-version of these packages at http://packages.ubuntu.com/ BTW, I used the Sun jdk 1.5.0_02. After the installation of the fedora-ds .deb-package I used the setuputil and an existing 'install.inf' file (see example hereunder) to do a silent install of the FDS. You can invoke the silent install like so: sudo /opt/fedora-ds/setup/setup -s -f /opt/install.inf Example install.inf: [General] FullMachineName= xenfds.intra.example.com SuiteSpotUserID= fds SuiteSpotGroup= fds ServerRoot= /opt/fedora-ds AdminDomain= intra.example.com ConfigDirectoryAdminID= admin ConfigDirectoryAdminPwd= yourpasswordhere ConfigDirectoryLdapURL= ldap://xenfds.intra.example.com:389/o=NetscapeRoot UserDirectoryAdminID= admin UserDirectoryAdminPwd= yourpasswordhere UserDirectoryLdapURL= ldap://xenfds.intra.example.com:389/dc=intra,dc=example,dc=com [slapd] SlapdConfigForMC= Yes SecurityOn= No UseExistingMC= No UseExistingUG= No ServerPort= 389 ServerIdentifier= xenfds Suffix= dc=intra, dc=example, dc=com RootDN= cn=Directory Manager AddSampleEntries= No InstallLdifFile= suggest AddOrgEntries= Yes DisableSchemaChecking= No RootDNPwd= hannibal [admin] SysUser= root Port= 7777 ServerIpAddress= ServerAdminID= admin ServerAdminPwd= yourpasswordhere ApacheDir= /usr/sbin ApacheRoot= /usr/lib/apache2 HTH, Olivier Brugman
