I have just installed directory services and run through the initial setup but i am not able to get the console running. I won't bore anyone with all the silly details just yet. I've already found one goof of mine so I am just planning on starting over from scratch. I really just want a pointer to the most up to date how to for initial installation and setup. I was using this : http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Install_Guide#Installation_Prerequisites Is this still accurate? Is there a better one? I am running F8. Max
