Thanks. Just as an FYI, that's not what I read in the documentation at all [1]. It says there are two possibilities for installing on Linux (then lists three) - debian package, rpm package and JAR package. Then the next section is titled "Using the jar file" and says run the following command "java -jar apacheds-1.0.0-linux-i386-setup.jar" and then says "Now, you'll see a graphical installer displayed.". There are 'setup' JARs for 1.0.x, but apparently these were abandoned for 1.5.
Again, just an FYI, so someone can update the documentation for "new users" that come for 1.5 directly.
