Think of it this way (doing this from memory):
- Config info for _other servers_ (such as admin) is held in the
directory under o=netscaperoot. DS itself does not "use" any of this.
It's important to understand that directory and admin are 2 separate
servers.
- There is one file (adm.conf?) that tells admin server how to
initially contact the directory server to lookup this config info.
- There is a second file (the one under shared/conf?) that is
effectively a cache of some of what is in the directory, in case you
start up and the ds is unavailable (this was important back when Console
was used to manage messaging, and or/use admin server to start directory
server, etc). Note that if you change this cache file and restart
things, it'll get overwritten from what is in o=netscaperoot, if I
remember correctly.
There are similar issues with changing the IP address. Note that this
is an issue with admin server, not directory server itself (i.e.
changing the port and ip address on directory server works without
problem, but "breaks" admin and such).

OK, editing files under shared/config is also necessary to get the console to
run. From there, you also have to edit the User Directory port to change it
to the new port.
By the way, this seems like an overly complex process. Is there a smooth way
to migrate a test server to production? Seemed like the easiest way would be
to just change the port from, say, 390 to 389. That's been proven to be
non-trivial.

Hi,
I used the gui to change the ports on my test DS. Now I need to change
the port that the AS uses to connect to the DS, and I have no clue how to
do that. I can't (obviously) log into the admin console, because it now
can't connect to the server on the old port numbers, and I can't figure
out which file under /opt/fedora-ds stores this vital piece of
information.
The DS works fine, but I can't administer it from the console, which I'd
really like to do.
Clues hereby solicited.
Edit /opt/fedora-ds/admin-serv/config/adm.conf
