Marc, I created the password files same as the RedHat guide, pin.txt and password.conf and they both worked good until I enabled ?Use SSL in console?. I used tried all the passwords that I used in FDS, but none works. :( I was able to restart and stop dirsrv and dirsrv-admin from terminal. Can you tell me if the DN is correct?
