6.7.4 eDirectory Not Restarting Automatically

After a system crash or power failure, eDirectory services (ndsd) might not automatically restart in
some situations. To start eDirectory again, do the following:
1 Delete the
2 At a terminal prompt, enter

6.7.5 One Instance Only

OES 2 supports only one instance of eDirectory (meaning one tree instance) per server.
If you need two or more instances running on a single server, you must install them on a non-OES
server, such as SLES 10.

6.7.6 Special Characters in Usernames and Passwords

Using special characters in usernames and passwords can create problems when the values are
passed during an eDirectory installation or schema extension.
If the username or password contains special characters, such as $, #, and so on, escape the character
by preceding it with a backslash (\). For example, an administrator username of
cn=admin$name.o=container
must be passed as
cn=admin\$name.o=container
When entering parameter values at the command line, you can either escape the character or place
single quotes around the value. For example:
cn=admin\$name.o=container
or
'cn=admin$name.o=container'
