Description Mont Rothstein 2006-03-20 18:32:57 UTC
Description of problem:

This may not be the correct place to report this, but I couldn't fugure out
where to report documentation bugs for FDS.

Sections 1.2.1 and 1.2.3 of "Red Hat Directory Server 7.1: Red Hat Directory
Server Installation Guide" recommends running FDS under ports other than the
defaults.

While this may be correct the problem it presents is that there are a number of
places that the port needs to be specified other than just in the setup program.

Places I have found so far include in ldap.conf and as a parameter to ldapsearch.

I have specifically run into this while trying to follow:

http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Howto:Samba

The maintainer of that doc stated that using the default ports was the preferred
solution, suggesting that the install docs are incorrect.

I don't have an opinion on which way to do it, but if the install docs are going
to continue to recommend using non-default ports, it would be helpful if they
also listed anywhere else the ports need to be specified.
