After successfully installing a standalone directory server, an attempt is made to install a second directory server with the configuration installed in the first directory server. After entering the machine name and port number of the standalone directory server , the following message is displayed: The standard directory server network port number is 389. However, if you are not logged as the superuser, or port 389 is in use, the default value will be a random unused port number greater than 1024. If you want to use port 389, make sure that you are logged in as the superuser, that port 389 is not in use, and that you run the admin server as the superuser. Directory server network port [42098]: For no clear reason, setup refuses to allow port 389 to be used: ERROR: Unable to bind to port 389 Please choose another port. The following conditions are true: - Setup is being run as the superuser - Port 389 is not already used (checked with telnet, nmap and fuser) - No idea what the admin server has to do with anything Setup can only continue at this point by choosing a port above 1024. To fix this: - The screens need to be made clear whether we are talking about *this* directory server, the *configuration* directory server, and whether we are choosing the port for the directory server, or the admin server. - The error message about not being able to connect to port 389 should say *why* it could not bind to port 389 (address already in used, permission denied, whatever).
What OS is this? What version of FDS is this? Are you using SELinux?
