EL6 support is . . . tricky. We will not provide support for 6.0 - too many missing dependencies. With RHEL6.1, since the 389-ds-base package is provided by the base OS, we cannot provide them via EPEL, hence the use of the private developer repo at fedorapeople.org. The other "problem" with EL6 is that the 389-ds-base package is not the full package - it is missing the replication and windows sync bits (hence the problem with the missing repl-monitor.pl). You have to pay extra for the ds-replication package in RHEL6 - right now it is available as a "tech preview" from your local sales rep. The 389-ds-base package from fedorapeople.org does have the replication bits. So, to summarize, if you want the full 389 ds/admin/console on EL6: 1) you must use EL 6.1 or later 2) you must use 389-ds-base from the fedorapeople.org repo 3) you must use EPEL6 for the other packages > -B -- 389 users mailing list 389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users
