After setting up Fedora DS v1.0.2 from RPM onto a remote machine, and having gone through the setup procedure, the admin server is cranked up. This logs the following within admin-serv/logs/error: [Sat Mar 04 09:57:18 2006] [notice] Access Host filter is: *.domain.com [Sat Mar 04 09:57:18 2006] [notice] Access Address filter is: * [Sat Mar 04 09:57:19 2006] [notice] Access Host filter is: *.domain.com [Sat Mar 04 09:57:19 2006] [notice] Access Address filter is: * [Sat Mar 04 09:57:19 2006] [notice] Apache/2.0 configured -- resuming normal operations For no specific reason, a host filter has been included that excludes client machines outside the domain domain.com. No clue is given as to how to change this setting - changing admin-serv/config/local.conf has no effect. Looking inside the cn=config tree inside the directory also reveals no such setting. The FD setup process should ask the end user whether they want a host based restriction, and give a hint as how to set it afterwards. At this point, I have an admin server running and no way to connect to it.
