2.3 Installing and Configuring eDirectory
Through YaST
On SLES 9.1 or otherwise known as Open Enterprise Server (OES), you can install and configure
eDirectory 8.8 through YaST.
For more information on installing and configuring eDirectory through YaST, refer to the Novell
eDirectory 8.8 Installation Guide (http://www.novell.com/documentation/edir88/edirin88/data/
a79kg0w.html#bv1lxl8).
2.4 Installing eDirectory 8.8 in a Custom
Location
eDirectory 8.8 gives you the flexibility to install the application, data, and configuration files in a
location of your choice.
One of the scenarios for installing eDirectory 8.8 in a custom location is when you already have an
earlier version of eDirectory installed on your host and you want to test eDirectory 8.8 before
upgrading to it. This way, you can have your existing eDirectory setup undisturbed and also test this
new version. You can then decide whether you want to retain your existing version or want to
upgrade to eDirectory 8.8.
NOTE: SLP and the SNMP subagent are installed in the default locations.
This section explains how to install the various files in a custom location:
