Directories : Starting & Stopping

Starting and Stopping the Server from the Command-Line

Use one of the following scripts:

serverRoot/slapd-serverID/start-slapd

or

serverRoot/slapd-serverID/stop-slapd

where serverID is the identifier you specified for the server when you installed it.

Both of these scripts must run with the same UID and GID as the Directory Server. For example, if the Directory Server runs as nobody, you must run the start-slapd and stop-slapd utilities as nobody. (From the Administrator’s Guide)

The Administration Server

If you forget what your admin server port number is, look in /opt/fedora-ds/admin-serv/config/adm.conf

Start the admin console with:

/opt/fedora-ds/startconsole -x nologo -u admin -a http://hostname.domainname.com:portnumber
