Using Typical Installation
For a directory suffix, enter a distinguished name (DN) meaningful to your

enterprise.
This string is used to form the name of all your organization's directory entries.
Therefore, pick a name that is representative of your organization. It is
recommended that you pick a suffix that corresponds to your internet DNS
name. Avoid space characters in the suffix.
For example, if your organization uses the DNS name
dc=example,dc=com
For Directory Manager DN, enter the DN that you will use when managing the

NOTE
In former releases of Directory Server, the Directory Manager was known as
the root DN. This is the entry that you bind to the directory as when you want
access control to be ignored. This DN can be short and does not have to
conform to any suffix configured for your directory. However, it should not
correspond to an actual entry stored in your directory.
For the Directory Manager password, enter a value that is at least 8 characters

long.
For Administration Domain, enter the domain that you want this server to

The name you enter should be a unique string that is descriptive of the
organization responsible for administering the domain. For information on
administration domains, see "Determining the Administration Domain," on
page 18.
For the administration port number, enter a value that is not in use. Be sure to
28.
record this value.
For the user you want to run Administration Server as, enter

default.
For information on why you should run Administration Server as root, see
"Deciding the User and Group for Your Netscape Servers (UNIX only)," on
page 14.
The server is then unpackaged, minimally configured, and started. You are told
what host and port number Administration Server is listening on.
