Description Jon 2011-03-25 14:00:30 UTC
Description of problem:
the setup-ds*.pl programs are inconsistent in their feedback when asking to setup the suffix.  The commentary suggests a suffix containins no space.  The default value offered, however, contains a space.  See the attached image.  Two problems here:
1) inconsistency;
2) it is easy to read the commentary, glance at the default, and assume you are getting a suffix with no space, as shown in the commentary.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
this was experience with RedHat Directory Server v8.1


How reproducible:
run the setup-ds.pl or the setup-ds-admin.pl programs, and observe the feedback/interface when it asks about the suffix of the directory tree.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
the default suffix offered contains a space between the domainname hierarchical components.

Expected results:
the default suffix offered should not contain a space between the domainname hierarchical components.
