When you run setup-ds-admin.pl, and it asks you for the hostname, does it have the correct hostname or the bogus one? If you specify the correct hostname at the dialog prompt, it will use the correct one throughout.

I'm not sure... I can no longer run that script because...

Please remove it first if you really want to recreate it,
or use a different ServerIdentifier to create another instance.
When using Silent or Express mode, some of the
dialogs are skipped, but validation is still performed
on the default or given answers.  You should run this program again and
choose Typical or Custom mode in order to provide a valid input
for the problem dialog.

I've tried to remove it, but

[root@unix-services2 ~]# /usr/sbin/ds_removal -s unix-services2 -w
mypassword

Error:The server '' is not reachable.  Error: unknown error
Yep.  This is a bug due to be fixed soon.  In the meantime:
service dirsrv stop unix-services2
rm -rf /etc/dirsrv/slapd-unix-services2 /var/*/dirsrv/slapd-unix-services2* /usr/lib/dirsrv/slapd-unix-services2 /usr/lib64/dirsrv/slapd-unix-services2
rm -rf /var/log/dirsrv/admin-serv
remove all files from /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv except for httpd.conf, admserv.conf, console.conf, and nss.conf

The backup was created in a server with both userRoot and NetscapeRoot, but you are attempting to restore it in a server that does not have NetscapeRoot. You need to create a root suffix called o=NetscapeRoot with an associated database called NetscapeRoot. You can do this in the console. *http://tinyurl.com/595tyy*

Unfortunately, I don't know what "o=NetscapeRoot" means.  I see
references to that all over the place.  On the working server, there's a
/etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/adm.conf file that contains that line, but I do
not have an adm.conf on this new server.
Is there a way to back out of this without uninstalling fedora-ds?  make
it completely forget about everything I've done so I can just start from
scratch and try again?
