Hi, Fernando :

First question, did you run the command /usr/lib/ldap/idsconfig to
configure the LDAP server after installation? ( Be careful, the
idsconfig need correct input.)

Second, here are some infomation can help you:

1) You need install the LDAP server on Trusted Solaris System, and make
the LDAP service listening PORT/TCP as a Multi-Level Port in global zone
in the /etc/security/tsol/tnzonecfg file.

2) You need to install LDAP Proxy Server to support LDAP client, for
example: LDAP server running on 10389 port, and Proxy server running on
standard 389 port (this one should be MLP), and client connect to proxy
389 port, proxy connect to 10389 port. You can install both server and
proxy on same machine, it's no problem.

3) After installation, you can run /var/Sun/mps/start-admin,startconsole
to start LDAP administration console, It can manage the server and
proxy, and manage Port should already be specified when you install the
LDAP.

4) Don't forget to populate tnrhdb and tnrhtp info to LDAP server, and
make each zone be the proxy server client with "ldapclient init" command
on the client machine.

5) LDAP server can't be the client of itself.

Try it again!

[security-discuss] TX install issues (what's wrong?)

I have been trying to install TX on Solaris 10u3 following the instructions 
here: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-0867/6n39012nt?a=view

At the point of "Make the Global Zone an LDAP Client", it mentions having to 
setup an LDAP server, so I follow the link to here: 
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-0867/6n39012p6?a=view

When I get to step 8, "Use the ldapaddent command to populate every file in the 
staging area", the command fails with "Container hosts does not exist".  That's 
if I create /var/ldap/ldap_client_file /var/ldap/ldap_client_cred to get past 
the failure opening /var/ldap/ldap_client_file.

This is a fresh install, just for testing TX, so I don't mind reinstalling at 
all.  I've tried Directory Server 05Q4 and Directory Server 6, with identical 
results.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
